A simple way to secure pinless or pinned OLED displays for connection to arduino/pi/etc is by using a Clothespeg-001 device. This device allows you to rotate the STLs yourself and requires no supports during printing. A 0.4mm nozzle with *0.4mm external perimeters specified in your slicer are always assumed when printing my designs. The pins and spring included in the DISPLAY STL are accurate references for designing around these objects. The DISPLAY STL is just a reference for assembly purposes only. Here's what you'll need to assemble the Clothespeg-001: * 1x M3x8mm(or 10mm) and nut * 1x M3x10mm and nut * 1x M3x20mm, 2 washers, and 2 nuts (or a single M3 nylock) * 4x Pogo Pin - P75-E2 Spring Test Probe https://www.aliexpress.com/item/50pcs-P75-E2-Dia-1-02mm-100g-Spring-Test-Probe-Pogo-Pin-Free-Shipping-Wholesale/813753643.html * 1x spring - 0.8Wire 10ODx15mm Long * 1x dupont female 4socket and wiring to suit Important note: A 4socket female dupont is essential for this design, as it allows the wires to stay inside the 'peg' and contact the tops of the pogos correctly. To connect your OLED display, follow these steps: * Attach wires with female terminals at both ends, leading to 4 individual 1socket duponts on the other end. * Insert individual pins cut from a row of slightly extra long pin headers into the dupont sockets. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10PCS-40Pin-1x40-Single-Row-Male-2-54-17mm-Breakable-Pin-Header-Connector-Strip/32846204552.html * This allows you to plug the OLED either in via the dupont or by pinching it under the pogos, and optionally use the dupot as a connection for cables too. * Always confirm the order of wires from the OLED to the output you are connecting. * Colour code with dots on top of the peg above the pins, then mark each wire with the appropriate colour after following it to its other end.
