The Headwaters case is now live on Makerworld. It's the first of many — every TrailCurrent module that has a printed enclosure is headed there over the coming weeks.
Why Makerworld
The STL and STEP files for every case already live in the same GitHub repo as the firmware, the schematics, and the PCB. That isn't changing. If you want the source of truth, it's on GitHub where the rest of the hardware lives, and that's where it will stay.
Makerworld is for the people who just want to print the thing. It handles slicer profiles, orientation, supports, and filament recommendations in a format your printer already understands. You pick the model, send it to your printer, and you're done. No scaling, no guessing, no hunting through a CAD folder for the right file.
Headwaters first
Headwaters is the edge gateway — the compute brain that runs the offline dashboards, the MQTT broker, and the local maps. It lives in the trailer full-time, so the case has to do real work: airflow for the CM5, clean mounting points, access to the ports you actually use. We documented every dimension of it in the build page last week, and now the printable version is one click away.
If you already have the PCB and the CM5, print the case and you have a gateway. That's the whole loop.
Every other module is next
Bearing, Borealis, Picket, Plateau, Ampline, Solstice, Aftline, Therma, Milepost, Fireside — every module with an enclosure is on the list. Each one will get the same treatment: STEP and STL in the repo, a print-ready bundle on Makerworld, and a matching build page on the site tying it all together. Expect a steady trickle as each case gets dialed in, printed, field-tested, and posted.
Follow along on our Makerworld profile if you want a notification each time a new model goes up. If you print one and find something we can improve — a support that's awkward, a tolerance that's too tight, a wall that wants to be thicker — open an issue on the module's repo and we'll fix it at the source.
Your vehicle, your parts, your printer. That's always been the point.
