Adjustable case / stand for a Lilygo T-Display S3 AMOLED

This model was built in support of the free open source project described at https://rlatour.com/youtubesubscribercounter and is sized for the Lilygo T-Display S3 AMOLED display (version 1).   

A derivation of this model for the non-AMOLED version of the Lilygo T-Display, which is slightly wider, is available here.

Required:

1. a LilyGo T-Display S3 AMOLED ( No Soldering Pin version)
2. a USB C cable
3. a couple of Dupont wires (20 cm or longer) (red and black would be good)
4. a usb female jack connector 
5. either electrical tape + optionally polyolefin Heat Shrink
6. wire cutter / stripper
7. soldering iron, solder

To assemble, please follow the instructions below:

1. cut the ends off a couple of Dupont wires and slide one wire through each of the arms of the case (see second photo)
2. connect the wires as shown in the third photo, and test that the ESP32 powers up (if you are going to use Heat Shrink ensure that you have fitted these on the wires before you twist the wires together
3. solder the wires, slide the heat shrink over the connection points and heat the heat shrink wires (or use electric tape) (forth photo)
4. put the case cap  on the case (make sure the slot on the ends have their openings facing down) (fifth photo)
5. push the wires into the case as far a possible
6. put the case and cap combination on the base between the arms (note - this can be  a little tricky but is doable - you can push the excess wire down the holes in the arms if needed, and also pull them from the bottom if needed - but don't pull too much such that that the wires would break)
7. push the usb female jack connector into the slot for it in the base.  Note: the slot appears to be a little oversized, but just wrapped some electric tape around the female jack connector a couple times to have it fit perfectly - I have tried to make the slot a little narrower in the base but then the usb female jack connector doesn't fit in well at the tabs on the side can break.  Regardless, wrapping some electrical tape around the jack works great.
8. Plug in the usb cable an tilt the display to your liking! (final photo)

An important note: once assembled, removing the ESP32 from the case to update its software and then putting it back in will be much harder then simply doing an Over The Air (OTA) update.  Accordingly, if you're using this model for a project where you feel the ESP32's software may need to change in the future then it would be best to ensure that the software supports OTA updates (as does the YouTubeSubscriber software which this model was originally built for).
