Description
This is a complete redesign (from scratch) from the steam deck repair jig I saw on Valves teardown video. I did use https://www.printables.com/model/167283-steam-deck-repair-jig-fixed as inspiration for the overall design and to double check my measurements (also used it to copy over the locking tabs on the 2 piece version) I did not like how the mentioned model or the one it was based off of had the model inconsistencies which make the surface rough, uneven, sharp, non-even circles and it did not hold the steam deck securely. I find my version holds the steam deck securely and works quite well (I used it to replace my ssd and replace the thermal paste with PTM7950. I printed it in ABS and ironed the top layers but a quick (5 minutes) of light filing made the surface smooth (and saved the 2 hours of ironing on my 2 part print) or TPU would be a good choice too.
