Kossel Mini SmartLCD-Case

A simple case for the RepRapDiscount SmartLCD controller on a Kossel Miniwith 15mm extrusions. It features an SD card slot and an emergency halt button.

Note: The knob for the rotary encoder is not part of this thing. I've used http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6194

Instructions

• Slice model and print case and button separately. Printing a few buttons at the same time improves their quality due to a longer cooling time between layers.

• Use wire cutter, knife and file to clean out the SD card slot support structure.

• Use 2mm drill to clean mounting holes on button.

• Mount button inside of case with 2x small screws. The button should move freely inside of its hole and return to its initial position on its own.

• Use 4x M3x8mm screws, washers and nuts to mount case in front of your Kossel Mini.

• Insert SmartLCD controller board into case.

• Use 4x M3x6mm screws to mount board inside of case.

• Connect controller board with data cables.

• Attach knob on rotary encoder.

• Have fun with your controller case. 😉

Note: Using a different color for button and knob looks more fancy.
