Sphinx CNC fixtures collection.

I've been making one of Kyo's Sphinx CNC routers for myself (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1741813), and I thought I'd share some files I've created to help with mounting and setup for others who are building the same thing. Rear PSU Mounting: The Meanwell LRS-350-24 PSU is a great fit for this build. I've included "PSU Support" for the rear mount. I used M4 x 8mm countersunk machine screws to attach it to the PSU, and some M5 x 20mm machine screws for the mount to the board (the image shows M5 x 25mm with a spacer). Front PSU Mounting: I've gone with this thing: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2440784 which was pretty close. Again I've used M4 x 8mm countersunk machine screws into the PSU, and added a little block to the side (see below) for a more secure mount. And an additional block on top to help secure the power connector (see also below). That's secured with M5 x 25mm machine screws. PSU Front Mount Block: I've used this to secure the front of the PSU cover to the board. I have some M5 Nylok nuts buried inside, and I've used 3.5 x 14mm woodscrews to mount it to the baseboard. Power Connector Adapter: I used this IEC 320 C14 chassis mount: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017VUBJMY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 being mains electric, I wanted it to be secure so I drew up a mount block. This has M5 Nylok nuts on the inside, and some M5 x 10mm machine screws to hold it down. I've used some Loctite 60 seconds all-purpose glue to stick this bit to the cover. Works great for both PLA and PETG. Phoenix Mount: If you've followed Kyo's recommendation in the electronics video, you've gone with this controller board from Phoenix CNC: https://www.tindie.com/products/PhoenixCNC/phoenix-usb-cnc-controller-with-pwm-output/ I can absolutely recommend it - well built and does exactly what it says out of the box. I've drawn up a mount for it, using 3.5 x 14mm countersunk woodscrews to attach both the board to the mount, and the mount to the baseboard. Controls Mount: I've ordered some nice metal-looking buttons for when I build a custom enclosure, but for now I've used this mount, to support these cheap buttons from Maplin: https://www.maplin.co.uk/p/125v-1a-push-to-make-switch-red-fh59p (that's the red, they do the black as well). Again I've used 3.5 x 14 countersunk woodscrews to secure this to the baseboard. Base Foot: Just a simple foot secured with an M5 x 25mm machine screw and nylok nut. I still have to lace up the wiring and make it look pretty - but if I don't post these now, I'll just get distracted by my next project.
