now i'm thinking about replacing the batteries in our gameboy games with battery holders so we can swap them easily in the future and I don't have any idea where to find out how much room there is inside the cartridge--directly measuring doesn't seem possible since you have to take the cover off and the cover is what limits your vertical height

all i can think of is making a 3d model of the cartridge in freecad from measurements but we're not good enough with cad to do that

@Felthry Maybe we could try? Frost thinks that sounds like a fun project.

...then again he doesn't know CAD very well either, only Blender, and Blender is mostly mesh-based.
