Bezel/case for Touchscreen ER-TFT050-3

thingiverse

I have always been very grateful to the Maker community for being so generous and uploading their 3D models and projects. I realized that I really haven't contributed much of value, and I need to remedy that lack of reciprocity by starting to contribute more. I know I have at least a dozen or so projects like this one (many of which are far more complete and polished) that might be of value to someone else. So, this is the first of what should be an unloading/uploading of various projects and prototypes that are 3D printable and have some practical use (at least for specific scenarios/situations). My intention is to always upload the native design file format, as well as STEP and IGES files. They may not be part of the initial upload, but I will get them up fairly quickly when I am at least moderately satisfied with the state it's in. I was working on a project for a client that uses an ER-TFT050-3 LCD screen with a FTDI VM810C board driving the screen. I needed a quick and dirty case/enclosure/bezel so I didn't have the electronics flopping all over the place, so I modeled this up. It is definitely a "work in progress" (i.e., raw, unfinished) model, but I figured I would throw it up here on the off chance that someone might find some value in it. I will upload the native SolidWorks files, as well as STEP and IGES files, when I get a moment. I can also take some pictures of the printed assembled unit if anyone is interested. Just to be clear, this is a raw, unfinished stop-gap not intended for anything other than making my desk less cluttered. I will probably finish this up (or at least make it a little more complete) for fun, and add a stand that incorporates the 18650 batteries this project uses. Assembly Note: The plastic bosses on the bezel are designed for 4-42 brass inserts. When I have a minute (or if anyone requests it), I will update this with the specific assembly hardware (screw types, brass inserts, etc). Shoot me a message or post a comment if anyone has any questions, or if there is anything I can assist with.
