Frame / Enclosure for 16x32 RGB Matrix Clock

thingiverse

A buddy designed a shield for a Particle Photon to hook up with a 16x32 RGB matrix panel. This is a backing frame to conceal the electronics and provide stability to the panel using an enclosure over the shield. Short video of the pong animation at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Zqlx9XyXe0. If you are interested in the shield, post in the Particle community thread at https://community.particle.io/t/maker-faire-rgbpongclock/11813 or message me on Thingiverse. Print all 3 pieces. The frame-b.stl will require supports. The two flat pieces go onto the back of the panel with the tabs overlapping. Align the cutouts in the pieces to match the connectors on the panel. There are two little nibs on the panels with corresponding holes at the bottom of the frame. Attach the frame to the panel using screw mounts from the panel. Assemble the shield and put it on the panel over the frame. Push the enclosure into place. Be warned! This may not work for all Adafruit panels: Please note, these panels are leftover stock from factories that make huge light boards. For this reason, the look, LED tint, power cable style and length, and precise size may vary from batch to batch, although the basic operation, codebase and tutorial remains the same.
