Display housing for AKAI MINIAK

thingiverse

This mod is based on the original Akai Miniak display, which was previously hidden behind a small plastic window and completely useless in its original position. 1. Remove the display and the original plastic window, print out parts, position the base, mark, and drill holes. 2. Combine printed parts to fit everything together. 3. Extend the display's ground cable - but don't worry about the ribbon, as the original length is enough. 4. Attach a ribbon and place the display in a new housing - it won't work if you try to place the display first and then attach the ribbon. 5. Screw the display into housing. 6. Screw the housing onto chassis - be careful! Screws can't be too long or housing will be damaged. 7. Enjoy your fully readable display! About printing - rotate models so they are horizontal (it's okay in Cura, but I'm not sure about others - e.g., Thingiverse preview is rotated - it shouldn't be). Use supports to support the upper horizontal edge of the display hole.
