IKEA LACK Leg End Cap (Power Rail)

thingiverse

If you've built an enclosure for your printer, then you may want to add some additional electronic controls for lighting, PI, or other automation and switching. If you have a spare table leg, this print is for end caps that increase the overall distance to ensure the entire assembly sits flush on top of the cabinet. Each cap provides a channel to accept 25x16mm conduit so the installation can be kept tidy as wires leave and enter the enclosure. Each also has a screw mounting point to secure the assembly to the cabinet. There is a butt stop 15mm inside the end cap to prevent the leg from sliding all the way in. Don't try forcing the leg to the end of each cap! I have left the DC-DC converters open and mounted to the surface of the leg because I've taken precautions against people, animals, or children reaching the assembly and potentially receiving an electric shock or burn. You are advised to ensure you provide adequate protection for any added electrical elements. DC-DC converters not only pose an electrical hazard but also a heat one as they get warm/hot during operation. If placing components within the leg, make sure you have sufficient cooling. The legs are made of cardboard and thus are not fire retardant.
