Covers for NEMA 17 stepper - GX12 plug

Models for enclosing NEMA 17 stepper motors come with two primary components. The bottom portion, engineered to secure firmly around the motor itself, forms the base of the design. This component seamlessly accommodates an aviation plug on its counterpart – the top part – with stepper connector wires carefully soldered into place on each pin within the plug. By engaging a series of screws and nuts, these two pieces integrate as a single, solid unit to protect those sensitive connectors, known for their relative fragility and susceptibility to damage without this level of encasement. You are more than welcome to utilize this concept as presented or make your own adjustments and bring it into tangible existence via 3D printing; regardless, curiosity drives my inquiry as I wonder what these creations will look like once taken from virtual design into physical form through the magic of modern fabrication.
