USB mountable "A" jack

Summary

This project will most likely suit the MAME builder more than a classic arcade restorer. I wanted to place some USB jacks inside an arcade cabinet to charge a keyboard, and run some single board computers. Rather than hardwire all of this, and maintain the ability to change out between different USB sizes, I chose to put power jacks throughout the cabinet. USB break out boards are readily available on Amazon, and this small case, will hold them in place. Printed in 2 half’s, you can choose a separate color for each making them even more fancy. All components including the bill of material are listed below.

About the Design

This design, as well as previous designs, was done in Autodesk’s free 123D design. This is now an abandoned piece of software, that I am still very proficient in. You can download its last revision for Windows (2.2.14) here, but understand that the online cloud storage option no longer works.

The .123dx file may contain sketches, solids, or both needed to render the final STL. and is included to ease part modification for your purpose.
