Ender 3 4040 Display re-mount to angle it for better readability

thingiverse

I got fed up with struggling to read my latest Ender 3 screen, which was overwhelmingly bright and had a fixed contrast that made it hard to see from any distance or angle. I swiftly built a 10 mm thick by 60 mm wide angled mount using leftover PLA+ filament to give the display some extra support and strength. The mount sits snugly on top of the printer's 4040 leg, securely held in place with four 5 mm x 16 mm screws that pass through four 5 mm T nuts. Two additional 5 mm X 16 mm screws with 5 mm NYLOC nuts firmly attach the display to the angled bracket. The result is a rock-solid setup that should withstand heavy use without any issues. The display's readability has improved dramatically, making it easy to view from almost anywhere in the room. However, be mindful of the ribbon cable's length, as it barely reaches the display and requires careful routing to avoid damage from the moving bed or printer components.
