DESCRIPTION:
This is a quick and easy fix for the Prusa MINI LCD being exposed to potential damage. A small piece of plexiglass or acrylic can be used to cover the screen and prevent damage to the panel while keeping all the usability of it.
Prints nicely and quickly, it is designed for 2mm thick sheets of plexiglass, if You need thicker ones let me know so I can upload them. Also, for thinner ones you can just add some tape or any type of material to make the fit right.
INSTRUCTIONS:
You will need to print the holder and then cut a piece of Plexiglass sized at 46.6 x 63.4 mm. A template is also provided to help with making sure the piece is the right size if You need it.
For fitting the two parts, depending on the tolerance You have, it can be a friction fit or You might need to use some glue, make sure to cover the Plexi if You glue it as it might frost it easily. I used a couple drops of CA glue after putting tape on the Plexiglass and it worked realy well (the marks in the pictures are from me accidentally scratching the Plexi.
The one in the pics was printed in AmazonBasics pearl white PLA in less than an hour and works wonderfully.
