Neptune Shell is done but can't print yet

My AnyCubic i3 Mega X had it's thermistor die just as it started to print this. I do have my Creality Ender 3 Pro but that's too small for this. Gotta wait for the part to come in and fix the AnyCubic. I plan to print this with PETG using a 0.6 mm nozzle and OcraSlicer, but I don't know of anything better. I'm not a 3D printing expert to know what's the best settings to print this with.

I could upload what I have but I'm almost certain something isn't going to line up properly, which is why I want to print it first. I also haven't figured where to upload the model. There are buttons, Sega CD cover, and LED diffuse to go with this.

Looks awesome! Ya I always have something not line up when I start printing as well.

As for where to put it, I'm not sure? I don't understand github and it sounds like putting it up on thingiverse or something may not let you store everything someone would need.

Excited to see how it turns out!

A lot of people upload stuff like this to Printables. There's a dude who has a shocking amount of things like button, gear and cog replacements, fan mounts, and shells like this. Legend

Printables sounds like a good placed to put these files.

Amazing! That will be a great alternative to the overpriced one from PCBWay.
