Printed Solid Lulzbot Mini LCD Case

Do you have the Lulzbot Mini LCD upgrade? You might be wondering why I don't like mounting it over the front of the printer - covering up the view inside or getting in the way of your enclosure is a hassle. The solution is simple: mount the LCD over the control box to the left and out of the way of the enclosure entirely. This clever design uses 2 M3-10 or M3-12 nuts and bolts through existing holes already in the printer, making it easy to install. You can route the ribbon cables two ways - either through the top of the electronics enclosure or, even better, out the window and into the case. Then use 3 M3-20 or M3-25 bolts to attach the back to existing holes on the LCD. This secure attachment covers the wires on the back and gives you plenty of room to hide the extra cable length. Mounting it this way is far easier than mounting it on the front right of the printer, using fewer parts in the process. If you have an enclosure, you'll need to remove the short side panel on the left of the printer - don't worry, you'll still have enough enclosure to keep the space nice and cozy.
