I cannot remember ever seeing one. If my memory serves me correctly the cases were included in the coop and they were already cut.

Ugh sorry I made a mistake in the dimension units. I drew it with some at 1/32 but only shown it at 1/16. I have update the drawing with more text and of course the correct dimension units.

Rick R.

P.S. I will remove the older files

Thanks

Thank you for doing this.  So how is everyone cutting the square holes?

Is there a .STL file available so I can print a case with a 3D printer?

How are you going to make a case with only two sides and without the top or bottom or interior?

The case measurements are on the polycase website
