Component Tester Case

thingiverse

Having purchased one of these small LCD testers, I simply couldn't resist designing a custom case for it to keep everything organized and protected. The case was printed with PLA using 0.2mm layers, and no support material was required. To build the case, you will need four M3 cap screws that are 24mm long, along with four M3 nuts, and a small piece of transparent plastic that is 1mm thick to cover the LCD display. If you prefer to power your tester externally, you'll also need a few additional components: a 9V voltage regulator (such as an LM7809), a 3mm LED, some resistors for the LED (I used 480 Ohm), a capacitor to smooth out the 9V supply, and a DC adapter socket. Print Settings: Printer: Prusa i3 Rafts: No support material was used. Supports: No supports were required. Resolution: The print resolution was set at 0.2mm. Infill: The infill density was set at 30%. Notes: I used PLA as the printing material.
