Title: Pregnant Mouse Dimensions
Post by: maxim7745 on September 09, 2024, 08:18:31 PM

I am planning to take the guts of a wireless mouse and 3D print an updated (adding a scroll wheel) Amiga pregnant mouse shell for it. I modeled the mouse from online pictures (alas, I got rid of mine many years ago), and want to verify the scale. If anyone could toss a ruler on theirs (just the length would be fine) I'd be most grateful. Thank you.

While I would greatly appreciate someone who owns a pregnant mouse double checking, I managed to get a length measurement from an Ebay seller: 3 3/4". I had estimated the scale from pictures of the pin spacing on the plug and another image of the plug and mouse together and, surprisingly, that turned out to be pretty accurate.

Should anyone be interested, here is the model: https://www.printables.com/model/364737-amiga-pregnant-mouse-two-three-button-variants (https://www.printables.com/model/364737-amiga-pregnant-mouse-two-three-button-variants)

Thanks again for any information, and also thanks to those who just took the time to read my post.

I can take some measurements and pics and put them on my website.

Just need the length measurement to set the scale (I've already modeled the pregnant mouse from pictures). I got a measurement from an Ebay seller, but am not sure how accurate he was. I really appreciate it, thank you.

I saw that when searching around. Very cool! I want a mouse wheel and wireless, so am planning to use the Bambu Studio mouse project board (may have to perform some surgery on it to accomodate the pregnant mouse's form...)

Great! Really, any dimension would've been fine as long as it was large enough. Thanks again.
