Symmetrical case for WaveShare ESP32-S3 4.2inch RLCD

Symmetrical case for WaveShare ESP32-S3 4.2inch RLCD

Simple and fast to print case with symmetrical borders around the display.

The case allows to access the USB-C port and SD card slot and comes with 3 little button extensions for the top of the case to access the boards 3 buttons too.

The case is designed to stand flat on a desk, but you can add the feet it came with to put it in an angle on a desk, if you like.

In the rear the access to the 18650 battery holder and speaker as well as the connector is still free and you can still use the a bit flimsy feet that came with the display.

As you can see from the pictures the case is wrapped around the display to hide its internals, except the USB-C and SD  card connectors you will need to access to setup the board.

You will need 4 longer M2.5x6 screws to hold the case on the screen from the back of the device with the 4 existing screw holes which unfortunately are M2.5.

⚠ NOTE: Do not use too long screws which might damage the screen. Be careful. ⚠
