Human: ReprapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller 12864 Folding Case with Lights and Switches. Yet Another High-Quality Case for the ReprapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller 12864 is Finally Here. This innovative design features perfect printing conditions and an attractive appearance due to its cleverly designed down panel that folds into a precise angle, ensuring a visually appealing aspect ratio. It's a Single Part Print that can be completed without supports, no brim, or no skirt. You can even print the RepRap plug to conceal the mounting screws. Features & Bill of Materials: Many impressive features are packed into this small case. - Wall Mountable with Two 4mm Screws (8 x Gauge) for easy installation. - The Foldable Pannel is secured by Two Din 912 M3*10 Screws for added stability. - One Slot for a Full-Sized P+N 4 Pins Inexpensive Rocker Switch (search "KCD4" on Aliexpress). - Two Slots for Two Low-Cost 6mm Metal Rocker Switches for lights or fans (search "MTS202" on Aliexpress). - Two Slots for 5mm LEDs for Control Purposes. - One Slot to Access the SD Card Reader by the side.

Design Explanation: Why Another 12864 Display Case? As Usual, You Can't Find All the Features You Need in "Things". Before Designing This Case, I Printed Three Cases from Thingiverse but Found Some Unpleasant Issues: Fragile Cases, Misaligned Holes, and Unpractical Mounting Holes. I Designed This Case to be Compact Enough for My Printer Inside a Heat Chamber, with All Controls and Switches in One Single Front Panel. The Angled Pannels Hold Everything Nicely. It's Just the Perfect Size, Comparable to Other 12864 Cases I've Printed Before. Lastly, It's a Simple Design with Easy Printing, No Post-Production Work Required Other Than Folding and Fixing the Bottom Panel. Two Years Later, It Still Looks as New and Has Withstood Frequent Dismantling for Maintenance. The Reprap Plug Conceals the Mounting Screws, and the Elegant Shape Makes Everything Nice and Clean. That's Why I Decided to Share This Design - Because it Truly Works!
