Following on from the Onboard Gateway design in Mech Update #08, an iteration was made, and now it is time to check it with @Leonardo Ward  's circuit board that arrived! Here is what it looks like in the enclosure:

Read on for more tedious details!

One of the iterations was to extend the outer lip of the upper piece. This would account for any differences in the height. Based on the results of the 3D printed block board, was unsure if this was going to work. Without a board inside, the result looked promising:

What you’re looking at in the above picture is a barely noticeable line where the upper and lower pieces meet. Now, time to add in the board. It still has the same result! Score!

This is where the two pieces meet.

Some of the areas of concern in the enclosure are the battery input port, where there may be limited space to insert a wire on the side closest to the edge. For the LoRa breakout board, it depends on the antenna that will be used. There may not be enough clearance if the antenna is bulky.

Here’s the board now fully assembled, and in the enclosure.
