thingiverse

3D Printer Host is a do-it-yourself electronic device crafted with a WiFi-enabled Adafruit Feather, a Neopixel ring, and a 3D-printed enclosure. The device connects to OctoPrint via its API and utilizes the excellent OctoPrint API library for Arduino. It displays print progress as well as state on the Neopixel ring. The 3D Printer Host also links up with Alexa via Thingspeak and a custom skill, enabling users to ask Alexa about various aspects of their printer and retrieve details about ongoing prints.

First, you can print the 'Base', 'Outer Cover', and 'Inner Cover' in a color of your choice and print the 'Cover Slip' out of transparent filament. The three cover parts will snap together, allowing the Neopixel ring to shine directly through the transparent filament. Second, the 'Base', 'Outer Cover', and 'Inner Cover' can be printed out of a color of your choice, allowing raw Neopixels to be visible. The third option is to print the 'Full Cover' along with the 'Base' in lighter-colored filament and let light shine through the single color of the cover.
