Mankati Full Scale XT E3D

Hello Mankati Full Scale XT user. I've upgraded my printer with a Raspberry Pi, Octoprint, and Camera. I was looking for a solution to hide as many components and cables as possible. The engineers at Mankati have just left enough room between the outer wall and the guide post to install a Raspberry Pi. Look closely at the photos, they should explain everything. Tip: If you cut the recess for the Raspberry connections out of the housing, cover the paint with adhesive tape. Otherwise, the paint will scratch as it did for me. The camera I intentionally mounted, although the camera orientation in the Octoprint can be rotated. But then the picture is bigger afterwards. I've attached the IR lamps with cables at the top and bottom. All this you can screw on the attached STL component and with four magnets (diameter 3mm, length 8 mm) simply attach to the housing. The camera monitors the print from behind. With a Wi-Fi network in the same room, an old smartphone, and an app (Printoid), you can easily control the printer via the network. https://octoprint.org/
