I wanted to get a feel for size and fitment before I started ordering strips of metal and PCBs. So I decided to make a scale mock-up.
I used Fusion360 and my 3D printer to make the model. But no 3D parts will be used in the actual build of the flashlight.
Legend:
- Black: outer brass trim (I could find brass more readily than copper in the right size)
- Blue: inner brass strip for making a ridge to mount pieces to
- White, solid: base plate, likely smoked translucent acrylic
- White, holes: main PCB with most circuitry
- Gold: PCB with 8x 2835 LEDs (rated at 150mA, 4000K)
Shown with the battery, switch, and the Qi charging coil
