I wanted to integrate an octoprint server seamlessly into my Robo3D without having to disassemble it every time I needed access. So, I set up a PCDuino Nano4 - essentially a rebranded version of the NanoPi M1 - with Armbian and Octoprint, and created this custom deck plate to attach it securely to the printer. My goal was to have effortless access to the ethernet port, retain the flexibility to add wifi later if needed, and be able to utilize flash drives conveniently with my printer. With this setup, I can now effortlessly achieve all these objectives. The ventilation holes are strategically designed to deflect debris from accumulating on the board, ensuring that any particles fall downwards onto a tray, safely away from the board and its heatsink.
