Alternate 128x64 LCD Mount for Tronxy X5S

thingiverse

Here is the rewritten text: I recently upgraded my Tronxy X5S with a brand new LCD panel, but I soon realized that the stock Melzi control board had a major flaw - its microSD card slot wasn't populated. To fix this issue, I replaced the stock board with an MKS Gen, which allowed me to use TMC2130 drivers and enjoy seamless SD card functionality. The standard 12864 LCD mount that came with my printer didn't meet my expectations, so I designed a custom layout specifically for my X5S. The result is a sleek, sturdy mount that perfectly complements the new LCD panel. What's more, this design now enables me to use an SD card again - and it's faster than ever. To assemble this upgrade, you'll need the following hardware: * 4 M3 screws, measuring between 10-16mm in length * 4 M4 screws, measuring between 8-12mm in length * 4 drop-in T-nuts for M4 screws Fortunately, the Tronxy X5S usually comes with plenty of spare parts, making this upgrade relatively easy to execute. In my case, I already had three M4 screws and T-Nuts that were used to mount the stock LCD. The new LCD panel is held in place by two pegs that clamp onto its screw holes, securely sandwiched between the base mount and face plate.
