What

Add an optional T-shaped cover for the open underside of the HD1370A desk/chair assembly. It follows the existing bottom rim, including the rounded desk corners and square rear corners, and provides four recessed M2 head seats so the outside face can rest flat on a desk.

Related #48, opened before this CAD contribution as requested in CONTRIBUTING.md.

  • 129.2 × 104.3 × 4.5 mm; four Ø2.3 mm shaft holes and Ø4.3 × 2.3 mm head recesses, leaving a 2.2 mm bearing shoulder.
  • Editable standalone Fusion design, aligned inspection assembly, and canonical 3MF/STL/STEP exports. The master TinyEngineer.f3d includes a hidden OPTIONAL_BOTTOM_COVER_HD1370A reference outside PRINT_LAYOUT; its original SG90 defaults are preserved. This fixed accessory is HD1370A-only and is not included in the multi-servo batch exports.
  • Rebuild scripts, corner inspections, CAD/mesh evidence, source hashes, documentation, and CERN-OHL-S source/license notices.

Checks

  • Conventional commit and PR title: feat(cad): add an optional HD1370A bottom cover.
  • Updated master .f3d, editable accessory .f3d, and exported .3mf; CERN-OHL-S retained, REUSE/NOTICE updated, and AiEmblem.3mf unchanged.
  • Master saved/reopened: all original 87 occurrence volume/bounding-box records and user parameters unchanged; optional reference hidden.
  • Independent Fusion and CadQuery cover solids: zero symmetric-difference volume. Perimeter: zero excess/missing area and sampled deviation below 0.000001 mm.
  • No cover interference with desk/chair/desktop/pad; all four reference heads stop against a shoulder and remain 0.3 mm above the floor.
  • Native 3MF: one watertight, consistently wound mesh, four through-holes, correct size and recesses facing upward for printing.
  • Python syntax, README links, CAD archive integrity, source hashes, REUSE TOML and git diff --check passed.
  • Scope reviewed: CAD/docs only; no firmware, package, HTTP, settings, pins, servo-range or PCB changes. Their local build/test commands are not applicable to this change.
  • No secrets or private device configuration included.

Upstream CI: run 36215792539 reports action_required with no jobs executed. Maintainer action is needed; a CI pass is not claimed. Local CAD checks above passed.

Hardware status: CAD inspection only; no completed physical print, assembled fit or fastening test is claimed. This PR is a draft pending physical validation. The stock desk has smooth Ø2.1 mm channels in CAD; a machine screw without a nut must grip the actual printed hole. The cover's head seats prevent pull-through, but do not create threads or establish screw retention. The 3.8 mm shaft insertion is not a verified engagement length.

  • Confirm printed perimeter fit, wiring clearance and flush head seating.
  • Verify actual screw grip and secure, removable attachment before marking ready.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added an optional 3D-printable bottom cover for the HD1370A model, with recessed seats for four screw heads.
    • The cover is specific to the HD1370A and is not included in standard part-set exports.
  • Documentation
    • Added design, printing, and fitting guidance. CAD checks pass, but physical fit and screw retention have not been verified.

The pull request adds an optional HD1370A bottom cover and its CAD source, Fusion workflows, print exports, and verification records. It also adds a hidden optional reference in the master assembly and documents that physical fit and screw retention remain unverified.

Changes

HD1370A Bottom Cover

Layer / File(s) Summary
Profile derivation and cover build
3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/README.md, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/requirements.txt, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/source-alignment.json, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/underside-profile.json, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/underside_profile.py, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/build_and_check.py
Alignment and profile data define the Desk and Chair underside outline. The build script creates the cover models and records geometry, fit, and mesh checks.
Fusion design and print exports

Fusion scripts create the parametric cover, import it into a fit-check assembly, check interference, and export Fusion and 3MF files. The verification record summarizes the Fusion model and fit checks.
Master integration and geometry checks
3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/integrate_master_in_fusion.py, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/inspect_perimeter.py, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/verify_master_mates.py, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/verify_head_seats.py, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/verify_print.py, 3d_models/parts/hd1370a/bottom-cover/*verification.json, 3d_models/parts/hd1370a/bottom-cover/screw-seat-check.json
The integration script adds a hidden cover reference outside the print layout and checks that original geometry and parameters remain unchanged. The verification scripts and records cover perimeter fit, mating parts, screw seats, and print mesh properties.
Accessory documentation and metadata
3d_models/NOTICE, 3d_models/README.md, 3d_models/cad/bottom-cover/provenance.json, 3d_models/parts/hd1370a/.gitattributes, 3d_models/parts/hd1370a/README.md, 3d_models/parts/hd1370a/bottom-cover/README.md, REUSE.toml

This adds an optional, clearly labelled prototype bottom cover for the HD1370A. The existing parts are not changed. The remaining issues are documentation and helper-script polish: the screw type and quantity, a stable source link, and stale error markers from the scripts. They can be fixed before or shortly after merge.

Clear this script's own error file on success.

On success, line 152 deletes fusion-build-error.txt, which belongs to create_in_fusion.py. It never removes its own fusion-final-error.txt, which line 156 writes on failure. present_in_fusion.py has the same gap for fusion-presentation-error.txt.

The bare except: blocks turn every failed assert into a printed traceback plus an error file. That makes the error file the main failure signal. After a failed run followed by a successful rerun, the stale file stays and reports a failure that no longer exists. Deleting the build error here can also hide a real create_in_fusion.py failure.

🐛 Proposed fix
     fitdoc.activate()
-    err = O / "fusion-build-error.txt"
-    if err.exists():
-        err.unlink()

Use a stable Source Location URL, not a fork feature branch.

Line 16 points to the feat/hd1370a-bottom-cover branch on the Hilo-Hilo fork. This link breaks once the branch is merged and deleted. The "Product notice" section asks makers to display the Source Location on products and packaging. A broken URL in a CERN-OHL-S notice defeats that purpose. There are now also two URLs, so "the Source Location above" is ambiguous.

After merge, the cover source lives in upstream main. Either drop the fork URL and keep only the attribution, or point it to a tag or commit permalink.

The modeled screw envelope is M2×6 with a 4 mm-diameter, 2 mm-high head. The head rests against a shoulder and stays 0.3 mm above the floor. The shaft passes through 2.2 mm of plastic and extends 3.8 mm into the desk channel. That is insertion length, **not verified thread engagement**. Actual pan/button heads must fit the modeled envelope.

The existing desk channels are smooth Ø2.1 mm in CAD. An M2 machine screw without a nut must grip the actual printed hole for this attachment to work. If the screw slides or spins freely, this cover does not provide a secure fastening solution. No nut pockets, inserts or modeled threads are included. Follow the repository's [screw sizing test](../../../README.md#print-first) before relying on the attachment. Do not enlarge the desk channels to the cover's clearance diameter.

Match the screw type to the repository's M2 thread-forming spec.

Line 32 describes an "M2 machine screw without a nut" gripping the Ø2.1 mm desk channel. provenance.json also refers to "machine-screw retention". The repository README specifies M2 thread-forming (self-tapping) screws for plastic. The Ø2.1 mm pilot and the ScrewSizingTest are tuned for those screws.

A machine screw in a smooth Ø2.1 mm hole is exactly the case most likely to spin freely. The current wording steers builders toward the weakest fastening option. It also presents a solvable fit question as an inherent limitation.

📝 Proposed wording
-The existing desk channels are smooth Ø2.1 mm in CAD. An M2 machine screw without a nut must grip the actual printed hole for this attachment to work.
+The existing desk channels are smooth Ø2.1 mm pilots in CAD. Use the repository's M2 thread-forming screws (4× M2×6, head within Ø4 × 2 mm); they must cut a thread in the actual printed hole for this attachment to work.

### Optional HD1370A bottom cover

An optional [T-shaped underside cover](parts/hd1370a/bottom-cover/README.md) is available as an editable Fusion design and [printable 3MF](parts/hd1370a/3mf/BottomCover.3mf). It follows the desk/chair perimeter and has four recessed M2 head seats with a flat exterior. **Prototype: CAD geometry checked; physical fit and screw retention unverified.** HD1370A only; not included in the normal part-set exports.

Add the cover's screws to the BOM and qualify the "no counterbores" spec.

This new section introduces a part that needs four M2×6 screws. Its README models an M2×6 envelope with 3.8 mm insertion into the desk channel. Two statements elsewhere in this file are now incomplete:

  • The Screws table lists only M2×4, M2×8 and M2×16. A builder who buys from that list has no M2×6. Using an M2×8 changes the modeled insertion depth into the desk.
  • The Screws "Spec" line says "there are no counterbores/countersinks in any part". The cover has four Ø4.3 × 2.3 mm head recesses.

Please add one sentence here with the quantity, length and head-envelope limit. For example: "Needs 4× M2×6, head ≤ Ø4 mm × 2 mm; not in the main BOM."

Thanks for this! really appreciate the careful CAD work, checks, and docs.

The underside cover is a solid, useful idea. I would like to drop the "optional" framing and treat it as a normal part of the design rather than an HD1370A-only accessory.

Could you please:

  • Make it work for all servo presets (not HD1370A-only), and update the PR title/description accordingly (e.g. drop "optional HD1370A" wording).
  • Follow the new contributor guide: I just added docs/3d/adding-parts.md (parametric multi-servo, timeline / PRINT_LAYOUT, PartsSet, export for all servos, naming/docs sync, etc.).
  • Add mount holes in the chair so the cover can be fastened from under the chair as well, so it sits firmly under the desk (and update the screw BOM if new fasteners are needed).

Happy to re-review once that’s aligned. Thanks again!
