24 pin USB-C part

[610TEvD]

I am currently in the process of designing my 2nd circuit board and have determined that i need a 24 pin usb-C which is not present in the fritzing database, i have looked at what is required to make my own parts and honestly do not have the skill to do so. would anyone be willing to help out?
Here is a technical drawing of the part;

The main problem is that Fritzing can’t do slots (see this old post for an explanation of the issues

USB 3.1 type C female socket connector

I’ve not used inkscape before so still trying to get a grip on it, but that would help. I’m wondering maybe would it be possible to edit say a micro b usb from adafruit that has similar tabs?? or do you need to build a whole new part.

)

so the slots would need to be done as 2 holes (one on each end of the slot) and then cut with an xacto knife. If that is acceptable then a part is easy enough to make.

yea, thats fine. ive been sifting through forum posts to see if a 24 pin usb c had been made before and saw the post about the slotting issue.

I think some people managed to create slots, but it’s not easy:

Plated-through slots

This is what I mean with plated-through slots. I recently managed to desing a pcb with plated-through slots to solder a Li-ion 18650 battery with soldered nikel U-tags. [1623224453743] To achieve such thing I had to design 2 things: 1st → A custom pcb svg with pads 2nd → li-ion part footprint with platted slots Then I had to make both things match in the pcb layout. If I wanted to move the li-ion battery position in the layout, I had to redesign the custom pcb svg. It was a pain in the a@…

This part should do what you want. I tried a third hole on the slot but there looks to be too much overlap.

thank you very much, just loaded it into fritzing and the part looks great!
