HW411 (LM2596 module)
Looks like this is not the first case for this module on thingiverse :)
You can just print this if you need a LM2596 case or you can use the API for making yours,
The 2 parts of the box are tightened using M2.5x16mm screws (configurable).
API
I wanted to design a full configurable PCB Box, they all have the same need:
Size fitting the PCB:
The API receive PCB sizes
The box has lips for perfect fitting

Screw the PCB:
The API receive any number of holes definition/positions

Hold the cables:
The design uses zip ties

Hold the box:
Uses zip ties as well

The LM2596 box SCAD file is just an example and is attached to this thing
