Prusa Enclosure Side-mounted PSU

prusaprinters

In an effort to make the Prusa Enclosure less deep I mounted the PSU to the side instead of the back.If you want to do this I feel obliged to say that, minor as it may be, this causes irreversable damage. Namely a hoop for a tie wrap on the metal bracket holding the PSU will have to get smushed. I did this using a vise with some flat taped on plastic parts. :) The other thing is, obviously, you'll need to cut a hole in the side wall. The latter cancels out, ‘cause the part you cut out neatly fills the gap left in the back wall. :)Another quirky thing is that the metal bracket that holds up the PSU will get flipped & its fold will point into the enclosure. It's not in the way of anything, just looks odd. Personally I find that pretty funny, however it does mean you can't make use of the fold for mounting the PSU. To compensate I added a little bracket that makes use of the top bolt of the PSU handle & screws into the side of the PSU.The PSU-retainer will have to get mirrored, which is easily done in the slicer. Instead of uploading a copy here's a link to the original file, in case it'll get updated https://media.printables.com/media/prints/251931/stls/2306911_9821d617-2616-4b50-8650-7e9ddea769eb/psu-retainer.stl I cracked mine when adding the magnets, so make sure to clean the printed part carefully.Optional:During prototyping I marred up the original PSU-locks pretty bad so I made new ones with a square nut (m3ns) inside. These are pretty flimsy with really thin walls. Personally I really like them but I don't know if I can recommend them. If you choose to print these add a pause in the slicer at the layer where it bridges the gap, add the nut, make sure it's flush with the printed part & resume the print.Included are drawings of the plexiglass back & side walls as well as the doors if you need them.Everything was modeled in FreeCAD 0.20, its source files are also included. Do with these as you please, it's all parametric but I'm not available to explain my naming conventions. ;)
