The SW-3B is a great QRP CW (5 watt Morse code) radio for amateur radio use. However, the knobs on the top could get damaged inside of a backpack or even a soft case. This cover is designed to protect the radio during transport while hiking or backpacking. The design is a combination of two side rails that protect the radio while in operation, plus a removable cover that protects the radio while in transport. To complete the build, the M2.5 screws need to be replaced with longer screws - I recommend M2.5x10 screws. These can be found online or at a good hardware store. If you like the design, let me know!

NOTE: The enclosure design I uploaded does not come with my call sign on it - I just did that for my print :)
