Elecraft KH1 - BaseCap + AntennaCap (STL)
Description:
I designed two simple protective caps for the Elecraft KH1:
- BaseCap – protects the knobs and key/paddle area to prevent accidental operation and provides extra protection during transport.
- AntennaCap – covers the antenna connection area to protect it while carrying the radio.
See photos for the design.
The STL files are available below for download.
Files (STL):
• KH1 BaseCap.stl
• KH1 AntennaCap.stl
Print settings (recommended):
• Material: PLA or PETG (PETG if you prefer a bit more toughness)
• Layer height: 0.20 mm
• Walls/perimeters: 3
• Infill: 10%
• Supports: not required (depending on slicer/orientation)
Notes:
• Fit may vary slightly depending on printer and material tolerances.
• If the fit is too tight, scale to 101–102% or adjust horizontal expansion in your slicer.
• Feedback and improvements are welcome.
