I designed a custom case for the TRMNL DIY Kit from Seeed Studio to hang on the wall.
It features a cutout on the right side to easily access the power switch, buttons, and charging port.
And you can hang it on the wall using two simple keyhole slots on the back.
Assembly
Assembly might be a bit tricky, so please refer to the images I uploaded and the instructions below.
- Setup the TRMNL DIY Kit according to the documentation.
- Put the display face-down into the printed front, making sure it's aligned and flush to the wall.
- Insert the four clips with the longer end in the front. They will later close the case and keep the display flush.
- Put the battery and the PCB into their designated places. Clamp them down using the two crossbars.
- Take the front, rotate it, and make sure the ribbon cable is not twisted.
- Insert the bottom clips into the printed back and push them through.
- With the display facing down, pull the two top clips a few millimeters out, insert the ends in the printed back, and push them back in.
- You're done!
And don't be like me; peel off the protective film before assembling your TRMNL 🤦
