I am sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.
But Im not good in 3D Design, I dont even have a 3D Printer myself.

long story short.
I bout this PCB from HoolyHoo
https://sudomod.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=5665
I tryed drilling on a test case to see if it would fit, but, it ended up crookid.
Cause of the height from the PCB to the shell has a few mm gap, and its enough to throw the drilling off, making the buttons not look neet on the backside.
som the holes might end up being higher up, lower, closer together, etc.

so my idea for a template is.

It doesnt need to be more than a few mm thick and would sit inside the GB shell for accurate drilling.
it might sound useless, but for the perfectionist with a high OCD level I think this would be a good idea.

and if anyone would make such item I would buy it at once.

Here is a drill guide that will work with that bracket. Mark one side then flip it over and mark the other two holes.

I was also curious about this. Printed template definitely helpful!
