OVERHAULED 4/17/18

These are models and assets I have made for various projects. Not everyone should have to create the same model over and over again, so I'm sharing all of mine. I use Fusion 360 so I have attached the F360 file, STL, and an image of the part for each item on here. Please feel free to use them in your projects!

I've been working on some 3D design so I'd like to share some of the models I've completed. I'll update this as I go along finishing models.

Trimmed Wii Motherboard

Wii USB Ports

Wii AV Connector
View attachment 4122

Wii DC Power Jack

Gamecube Controller Ports (trimmed PCB, note these ports are from a GameCube. The ports themselves and their spacings are the same as the Wii, just the PCB differs as it is mounted underneath on the Wii)

Is the heatsink setup you included in the OMGWTF trim model an actual product? If so, where can I get one?
I'm a little confused with the whole cooling thing. I know it's a simple concept, just not sure how to do it :P

Just search eBay for 35x35x(10 or 7) mm fan. I use that in combination with a 35x35x(7 or 10) mm heatsink that I got from Mouser. I put a 70x35mm copper sheet between the fan/heatsink and thermal pads on the Wii's chips. I ordered the copper sheet from OnlineMetals. You can see how I have it set up in the model.

Cheers for these models Jeff, very helpful in getting an idea on the size of the case, as well as where to position everything.

How do you attach the fan/heatsink to the copper plate? Thermal pads as well? I tried using aluminum brazing wire to "weld" the aluminum heatsinks to the copper plate. It works but the heatsinks get pretty wrecked from the heat needed to melt the brazing wire.

You could try using thermal epoxy. It's basically thermal paste, but it forms a permanent bond between the two surfaces.

Thanks, I'll look into this. I have thermal adhesive for smaller Raspberry Pi heatsinks, but I don't think it will hold well enough for the bigger heatsinks this project warrants.

If you use this method you generally screw in the motherboard to the case which pushes down on the heatsink assembly. If you have 3d printed walls for the heatsink/fan then none of that is moving so I don't think you should worry too much.
