ahh if you're happy to work with arduino's you'll do fine.<br>

ok. right. the first thing to remember is: it's PCMCIA, so you can<br>
use models for that. there's an eoma68.stl file around somewhere<br>
which i use... let me see if i can find it... ah! here you go:<br>
<a href="http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/kde_tablet/3dcase/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://hands.com/~lkcl/eoma/kde_tablet/3dcase/</a><br>
<br>
second thing: i diiid do some KiCAD libraries, way back 4 years ago -<br>
it was such a bitch that i had to use proprietary software instead.<br>
the libraries however still exist: <a href="http://git.hands.com/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://git.hands.com/</a> and you want<br>
eoma.git.<br>
<br>
thirdly, the CAD modelling that i use is based on python, where i<br>
wrote something called pyopenscadobj.py, which uses pyopenscad.py,<br>
which then auto-generates openscad files, which then on-demand<br>
generate STLs.<br>
<br>
oh wait - i used pyopenscadobj.py in the sandwich200, but used<br>
functional programming for the tablet 3dcase and the laptop.<br>
<br>
anyway, feel free to explore...<br>
