This model allows you to use the original front panel to hold a LILYGO 2.8" for use with a Gaggimate mod. The rotary switch must be removed.

You will need:

2x       M4x12mm screw

2x       M2x6mm    screw

Printing Notes:

Screen Holder:

  • 20% Infill

  • Tree Supports with a brim. I recommend increasing the brim size to give more adhering to build plate

  • Printing it flat creates too many supports. You should print on its side as picture below. I recommend the orientation in the picture such that the notch for the screen's cable is on a slight angle

Shroud:

  • The shroud should be orientated so that the small overhang that holds the screen is on the print bed. I recommend a brim for this print

  • There are two shroud models provided, one with screw holes and one without. I recommend the one with screw holes as it gives a strong secure finish. The non-screw hole version is for people who do not like the aesthetics of screws  and wish to rely on friction or by other means to keep the shroud in place

Assembly

  1. Remove the rotary switch.

  2. Fish your screen wire through the hole of the front plate of the De'Longhi. Make sure the De'Longhi front plate is fully installed

  3. Place the printed screen holder into the hole of the front plate left by the missing rotary switch. It should fit snug and only in one way. Using two M4x12mm screw, firmly screw the screen holder. Tip: M4 screws are slightly too large for the predrilled holes on the front plate of the De'Longhi. I recommend threading the M4 Screws through the predrilled hole before installing this mod if you are having troubles screwing them in.

  4. Place the LilyGO 2.8" screen into the holder. Make sure to attach the wire you previously fished through the hole!

  5. Place the shroud over the whole assembly. You can then use 2 M2x6mm screw to firmly hold the shroud in place.

Conclusion

Currently, I left a little bit of wiggle room around some parts of the screen to allow for printer variations and the fact that LilyGO screens can have slightly different placements of the panel on the back of the glass. With the shroud installed, the screen should be held firmly in place.

This is version 1 of the model. Any suggestions are appreciated!
