Design and modify the OpenSCAD parametric enclosure for the handheld console
Design and modify the parametric 3D enclosure for the ESP32 Emu Turbo handheld console.
Argument (optional): Component or feature to modify (e.g., dpad, battery, usb-c, shoulder-buttons).
The enclosure is a landscape handheld (170 x 85 x 25 mm) with:
