Electronics box for 3d printer

thingiverse

Update: Added a Quick Fix for those Interested in Using this Design Standalone. Included Pictures of the Printed Result and Fit. I built this electronic box specifically for my Velleman k8400 printer. It was designed to house an original Raspberry Pi model B, two LM2596 voltage regulators, and a reprap.me power expander. The voltage regulators and the power expander board can be secured in place with screws. Since my Raspberry Pi doesn't have mounting holes, I fit it between two small holders within this design; if needed, I'll reinforce it further with hot glue when mounting on the printer. My plan is to use one voltage regulator to power my Raspberry Pi and another at 12V to supply Ikea LED strips. I didn't initially envision a lid for this design because I intended to mount the "box" directly underneath the Velleman K8400 on its bottom panel. Though not completed yet, I was able to test the fit (interrupted mid-print due to clogging, likely due to poor retraction settings). Instructions: Print with support only for cable holes. Ventilation hole-pattern shouldn't require any additional support. Fasten components with M3 screws, which should easily thread into the design's mounting holes.
