MakerSelect Wanhao Rear Plate with relay control

thingiverse

Here is a replacement control box rear plate for a Maker Select. It has been tested and fitted on my own Maker Select V2, which runs Octoprint on a Raspberry Pi installed in the main housing of a custom created version of a PiClop scanner. However, I wanted to be able to control some add-ons I made for my printer without a bunch of ugly wires. This was designed to be able to mount a Siemon Cat6 keystone jack on the back of the control box, allowing you to use any ethernet patch cord to control a Sainsmart 4ch relay board (or similar device) with a nice clean look. There are several files included to allow you to modify as needed or create your own designs: boardMounts2.stl: The mounting plate I made for inside the control box. This will require drilling holes in the metal housing for 2 M3 screws. The heads will be visible on top of the box. There are already two M5 screws there, and I used socket cap screws that matched and I think they look fine. This stl allows you to mount a Sainsmart 4ch relay and the MOSFET mod board cleanly inside. MK2RearPanel.stl: This is the panel I chose to use and the ones featured in the pics. It allows for the original power plug/switch/fuse panel, original 40mm fan, and adds a hole for the jack. MK2RearPanelDual.stl: Basically the same as before, but slightly rearranged to allow for a second 40mm fan. MK2RearPanelBlank.stl: The Maker Select control box rear cover with NO cutouts to easily make your own design. seimon_mount.stl: This is a mounting plate for another keystone jack on the other device. It includes a backplate for inside the other device enclosure and a front trim/mount that goes on the outside. My scanner body took 20 hours to print, and I had not planned to add this at that time. I did not want to reprint it so this was my solution. It allows a not-so-pretty hole to be cut in your existing print or store-bought enclosure and will hide the nasty and look nice. You can use the backplate piece as a template for your hole. seimon_jack.stl: The cut out for mounting a Seimon Cat6 keystone jack. I used the angle style because it was all I had on hand, but a straight one will look far nicer. You can use this file to boolean out holes in the included MK2RearPanelBlank.stl or in a design of your own. This was created from measurements of an actual Seimon faceplate. The important thing to remember is the larger face must remain at the 2mm thickness it currently is or the jack will not fit. Software I used the Octoprint plugin found here: https://github.com/vitormhenrique/OctoPrint-Enclosure This was remixed from the Wanhao Duplicator I3 Controller replacement backplate by jamesarm97 that can be found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:853541
