Part 1 Sinclair ZX Spectrum Next + edition Preparing the case & 3D printing the parts on cel robox

After deciding on which case to put my Next boarding, I went with the Spectrum +case,as I originally owned the "Toastrack" as a kid, this one felt more nostalgic for me, I found an empty case on ebay pretty cheap.

I wanted to bring the style of the modern Next to the retro spectrum + case.

If the next could have been released in the 80's or 90's, I imagined it to have looked like this 😃

or you could use a usb soldering iron which is cheaper and basically the same thing, but the modifi3d tool has a few more unique tips.
