I am not responsible if you cause any damage to your Nintendo Switch or your dock, so proceed at your own risk. With that out of the way.
What is Docky?
Update: 10/24/2020
Fixed docky bottom as the PCB post holes were too big
Re-exported full docky with new docky bottom
Thanks to kelevandos for reporting the issue, much appreciated kind, sir.
Update: 8/12/2020
Fully redesigned in Fusion 360 better dimensions/tolerances all-around.
Added USB-C support to the bottom cover
Increase the size of the light fixture for easier installation
Added metroid, paper mario, splatoon squid, and a few zelda logo designs
Included full docky plain which is how I normally print this with supports at 20% infill, pillar resolution is at 4mm and overhang is at 45deg.
Important
Extruded and Plain body models differ in size and the lids for these are also different sizes for each of these so make sure you print the correct lid based on the body model you choose.
Plain & Recessed Body Lids are to be used with the docky plain and docky recessed body models.
The Extruded Body Lids are to be used with the Extruded Body dockies.
The bottom lid is universal for all docky variants.
Update 12/23/2018:
Uploaded all new files I made a mistake and uploaded the wrong files in my previous update the only file that had the correct dimensions was the smash bros docky, my apologies.
Update 12/09/2018:
Fixed size tolerance on all ports for an easier installation and better fit
made it a bit taller to relieve stress on the usb-c cable
added usb-c support to the bottom of the lid to relieve stress on the port, no screws required on the port now
Added a few themed dockys: Smash, Triforce, Triforce Bird, Shieka and Nintendo Switch logos in both extruded and carved versions
Update 5/17/2017:

Update 5/9/2017:
Added Docky no cover versions, Docky with no hinges and no need to use the cover. (This was a user request I'm not sure about stability of this model and I have not printed it, use at your own risk)
Update 5/1/2017:
Added power led indicator and front bevel to switch docking area, rebuilt 3D model from scratch with better proportions.

Docky STL files
Instructions on how to open your Nintendo Switch Dock
Installing the Motherboard in Docky
You should have all 3 Docky components
Place the motherboard and fold a piece of the ribbon and put it under the usb ports so when you secure the motherboard the pressure keeps the ribbon in place. Secure the motherboard in the bottom Docky component with 5 screws.
Place the led board into the crevice in the bottom component and apply some pressure until it's pretty firm.
Place usb-c port and tighten the 2 screws.
With the bottom component fully assembled insert the side with the HDMI, usb and power ports into the top Docky component first, apply a little pressure.
Proceed to insert the other side with the 2 usb ports by lifting a bit the plastic so you can slide the bottom Docky component into the top component.
Tighten the bottom Docky component with 4 screws.
Install the cover by placing one end into the top Docky component and then sliding the other end until it seats firmly.
Your shiny new pocket size Docky is ready to go.
I want one but I don't have a 3D printer
You can use one of these online services to print your Docky and have it mailed to you.

I want to make changes/improvements to Docky what do I do?
Awesome, I am not a professional 3D artist so I'm sure there's a lot of improvement that can be made to the model so any help is appreciated.
