Because cutting something on a CNC machine is one thing, but here it’s clearly quite another :)

Yea it's a 3D-printed holder for LKP PCB and RGB strips. It's printed in 3 parts since it's too long to sit on most FDM printers' printing bed.

Oh yes, 3D-printed is sounds like perfect way for this. But this is a "bottom", on this will be mounted slider, but what is on the "top"? Because it must be with LED strip look good. It will be somehow like official slider configurated?

It look like plexiglass on top will be good, but I, for now, do not know how to put LED strip, to make it look beautiful, like on official slider :))

It uses 2mm plexiglass as the overlay. The top part that has 6 screw holes on it clamps the overlay down (it also hides the LED strip). The overlay will be also glued in place on the other end, with 4 screws holding down both the PCB and the overlay on the left and right side

The glued in part is to make sure that my hand won't hit anything like plastic clips or screws when I swipe through while holding buttons. I'm not a huge fan of glued in parts but I made an exception on this since the alternative designs are difficult to execute correctly.

Also the whole thing is bottom mounted similar to the real thing.

Yeeeahh, I want this! But I'll need little changes for myself, but there will be only some linear dimensions changes, I think
