Hey guys I was wondering if anyone more knowledgeable than myself could help? Mushroom mods released their 3D prints recently and Im really interested in trying to print one....problem comes when trying to get the internals made. I don't really have the tools or the knowledge to make them myself. I was wondering if anyone could help as far as where or how I could go about get a set made? Maybe not, but just thought I'd ask. I've also seen files for a VTC Mini 3D squonker I'd LOVE to make....but sadly thats way beyond me at this point

Have you checked with the usual suspects ie Stealthvape and Modmaker, They both carry a good selection of parts. Other than that FB can be a good source for information etc.
Good luck

I could knock you some up there fairly straight forward. Would need some dimensions tho.

The copper should be a doddle to do. That's the only bit I need to get for mine. I've got my enclosure, 510 and magnets. Some copper sheet and a cheap pair of tin snips should probably do it. I don't think I'll be arranging my contacts the same way as the mushroom guys though. I'll probably make so the batt goes positive down and the pos contact makes contact with the pin on the 510

Hi guys only just seen the replies on this thread, thanks for the offer phtumshk thats really generous of you!! I could send you the pdf file they included the dimensions there, let me know if you could still take a look, I'm also thinking it would be better to make it that way drunkenbum. I've still got to get the box printed, I wanted to make sure I had all the other parts sorted before hand, in the mean time I ordered a Floris box Not sure if any of you have any experience with these? looks straight forward enough, guess I'll find out. I need a drill, and the correct size drill bit, I'm also not sure how everything will fit or how the contacts will stay in place. I ordered 0.3mm copper and now I'm worried it may be a bit on the thin/flimsy side?

No worries jonathan303 can do if needs be. Having seen the mushroom setup they seem to have made something that should be really simple a bit over complicated. as drunkenbum says would be easier to follow the frankenskull contacts route.

I'm assuming the mushroom guys did it that way to avoid pressure on the centre pin. My rockmodz squonker fires off the pin and I've had no issues with that
