Ender-3 LCD Display Stand

Ender-3 Display Stand

As I prefer the printer electronics not beeing baked in the IKEA LACK cupboard, I relocated mainboard, power supply and display outside the LACK using a long ribbon cable.

My first try designing a display stand ended in something like a brick (can be seen in my other designs)

This cover here is slim, looks better and can be assembled without glue or screws.

!! PLEASE NOTE: For fitting in the intentionally slim design, the plug of the original display cable might be too tall (see chapter post-printing below). Before printing (and commenting) please check, whether this is the case. If so a buying a smaller plug or an extension cable with small plugs (see example Link below) will solve the issue.


ORDER OF ASSEMBLY:

1.) Slide in display (with attached cable) in the main frame
2.) put loose cable end through the holes
3.) install cable plug from the inside (if it is too loose a drop of glue will help)
4.) slide in the left side (the one with the tubes) starting with the upper tube; the cable is intended to fit between the tubes and the backside of the main frame (min. 2 mm space)
5.) install the right side starting from the upper part.

--> The quality of fit is depending on printer precision; if the fit is too tight use a knife to remove potentially overextruded corners.
