Prusa i3 MK2(S) Raspberry Pi + 3.5" PiTFT+ Frame Mount

thingiverse

Inspired by numerous Octopi cases I've observed, including AdaFruits' 3.5" PiTFT OctoPrint Rig and Raspberry's 7-inch LCD mount from another site, as well as https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2146541. I designed this to suit my needs, which will be expanded upon as I wire and design my final OctoPi Camera enclosure. Initially, it was a simpler frame clip type mount loosely based on the above thingiverse mount, but the dovetail used (and poor printing in PLA) resulted in its failure, making this new mount a better option. The added spacing allows for easier connection of power/HDMI cables and adjustment in angle. Upcoming additions include: Zip Tie attachment points Cable routing Modified Camera Cable & sensor wire passthroughs A few people have asked about the control UI on the Raspberry Pi shown here: OctoPi/OctoPrint (http://octoprint.org/download/) with the plugin TouchUI (http://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/touchui/). This is the single best upgrade/add-on I've found, and even without the TFT display makes a world of difference in remotely monitoring/uploading and controlling a print from my PC. Included is the Sketchup file I'm working on, scaled to meters. Export STL's in meters, and it should shrink accordingly. I have updated this design with a V2 case for individuals requiring more room for electronics/GPIO hookups. This splits the case into three parts, adding a removable back that can be cut/adjusted as needed without reprinting the entire support assembly.
