RCM Jig and wire bending template for Nintendo Switch

Update 25th June: made the keyring hole a bit bigger, fixed issue with orientation: apparently the model was rotated a bit upon export to stl

Description:

Redesigned RCM jig, based on thing 2877484 but redesigned from scratch with following changes:

- square 0.7mm holes for wire instead of round 0.8mm for better bridging performance which results in cleaner holes that do not have to be cleared up

- no unnecessary chamfered/rounded edges because the printer nozzles are round anyway

- added keyring hole

- included template for wire bending and cutting

only copper wire version is included, since poorly bent paperclip can easily damage the joycon port. Copper wire is easily obtainable from an common ethernet cable

Best printed at:

100% infill

0.1mm layer height

only 1 perimeter (otherwise important details will be lost)

How to use the template:

1) insert the wire in the longest part, cut the wire at this length

2) insert in the medium part, bend with 90°

3) insert the longer side of the wire in the smallest part of the template, bend once more
