Rostock Max PWR & USB sockets

thingiverse

Moving your Rostock Max from one place to another is quite a challenge, because the power and USB cables come out at awkward angles, get stuck everywhere. I came up with a solution ! First, gather some parts : a standard USB cable with male type B connector on one end, an IEC male chassis plug that can be found on any scrap electrical equipment, a standard IEC power cable, and a USB-B solder type connector that you can recuperate from a scrap USB harddisk. Then print this thing out, glue in both connectors. Next, cut the cables to an appropriate length, but not too short - there's plenty of storage room in that area ! After that, solder on the cables, make an appropriate hole in the sideboard for it. Finally, screw or rivet the assembly to the sideboard, make a notch for your power cable to reach the power supply socket. Connect everything up and put everything back in place - it's ready !
