Former esports commentator builds his own custom mouse shell generator for 3D printing that doesn’t use AI

Bastian Recha, “Unskilledcast,” is a German former CS:GO commentator, tech reviewer, and 3D printing enthusiast. On October 28, he posted a demo of his “Mausstudio” project on X that generates a customizable mouse shell around an imported 3D model of a mouse PCB intended for 3D printing — all running locally and not generated using AI.

Bastian posted on X after six days of inactivity, stating that he’s been busy working on Mausstudio, his custom 3D-printed mouse shell generator. His post shows a video of him demonstrating the software, playing around with the ways users can customize their mouse.

This is why I’ve been a little quiet on social media lately.Meet mausstudio.Import your mouse PCB as an STL and start designing your own mouse shape.The tool runs locally, using maths and algorithms. No AI involved in generating the geometry.Still a work in progress. https://t.co/UpO3YvfNGlOctober 27, 2026

Mausstudio works by importing an STL 3D file of a mouse PCB, like the Razer Viper V2 Pro and Zaunkoenig M2K PCBs in Bastian’s demo, from which the software detects the location of several key components: Mouse button switch locations, sensor location, scroll wheel location, and screw hole locations. It then generates a shell around those key components, placing stems to reach the switches, cutouts for the scroll wheel, buttons for the side switches, and base cutouts for the sensor.

Bastian’s demo also showed how users can adjust the width, length, and height of the mouse, including the location of the hump. Further customizations include weight-reducing cutouts for the upper and lower shell, with options to have a fully enclosed shell without the cutouts.
