Prusa i3 MK2 MultiMaterial - Switch PCB Case for Rev 0.4 (new and smaller PCB)

thingiverse

When I installed my MultiMaterial upgrade for the Original Prusa i3 MK2S printer, I made a critical error that resulted in breaking the casing for the extruder switch PCB. The original case can be found at this GitHub link: https://github.com/prusa3d/Original-Prusa-i3/tree/Multi-Material-Upgrade/Printed-Parts/stl. However, the original design lacked depth, making it difficult to route cables and ultimately leading to my mistake of breaking the case. A well-designed enclosure should facilitate cable management without resorting to excessive force. Fortunately, my custom case is still compatible with the original cover plate, but I created a new one for several reasons: 1. To provide a complete set of parts for users. 2. Due to the added depth and wider, longer slots/holes in my design, which greatly simplify cable routing. I deepened the case to make it easier to store long stepper cables, and the wider, longer slots enable smoother cable management. However, with the original cover plate, you may notice unused space in these slots after installation. My redesigned cover plate addresses this issue by providing covers for these areas. My goal is to share a useful design with fellow makers. You can find the Fusion 360 file to make your own modifications, but please respect the licensing that applies to this project and its files. I appreciate any feedback or suggestions on how to improve my design. Additionally, I invite you to explore my other designs, printer parts, and tools.
