Volca Case

Laser-cut transport case and dust protector for all Korg Volca synthesizers. Made with OpenSCAD.

Volca Case

Volca Case Family

The lid can be removed without unplugging any cables: Volca Case

How to build one

Download pre-made 2D templates from the releases page or customize and create your own template (see below). Then, feed the template to a lasercutter and assemble the case using some glue. If you don't know where to lasercut, check the internet to find a nearby FabLab/Makerspace which owns a lasercutter.

How to customize

Multiple things about the case can be customized, such as:

  • case thickness
  • laser kerf compensation
  • larger cutouts to accomodate space for bulky plugs
  • disabling cutouts in the lid altogether

The case is made with OpenSCAD. You will need to install:

Once these are set up, you can customize the case by changing stuff in src/modules/case_settings.scad. Then, follow the instructions at "Exporting to 2D" in the laserscad readme to create your 2D template.

Alternatively, to export the case for all Volca units and materials of various thicknesses, additionally install imagemagick and follow the instructions in make-case.
