Unico ULM26 Monitor Legs and Control Board Case

I designed these legs for the Unico ULM26 26 LCD arcade monitor. This monitor is designed to go inside of a arcade cabinet. However if you want to use this on a desk or table, it has no way of supporting itself, so I designed these symmetrical legs for it.

Features: 

5 degree tilt for better viewing angle and stability.

Large, thick legs for strength and durability.

Symmetrical monitor placement. Place the display on any side - Horizontal and vertical! 

Protective case for the control board. Easy snap lock design to protect it and has cutouts on the back for a pair of magnets. Can easily attach the case to anywhere on the metal chassis.

Captive nut cutouts on the back of the legs. No extra tools needed besides a screwdriver.

Print Settings:

The legs are labeled as Leg_left and Leg_right. Print two of each. Two go on the bottom and two on top.  Print using whatever layer height (i would do .28 or .30) and 4 perimeters or walls for extra strength. No supports. 20% infill and PLA is perfectly fine for these. 

Print the case_bottom and case_top flat on the built plate with a .20 layer height and 2 walls. Same for the button. You will need to print 5 buttons. No supports on any of this either. 

Extra Hardware:

To complete the assembly, you will need to make a trip to your hardware store. 

You will need:

8 x m4 x 20mm machine screw

8 x m4 washers

8 x m4 nuts

For the case you will need 2 x 5mm x 1mm magnets.  Like these:  https://amzn.to/47GnQYx

They press into the bottom of the case and can be secured with a small dab of superglue. Alternatively you can use some of the peel and stick backed magnet tap and apply a piece of that to the back of case. Either way, you have a case that can be moved around the display and only limited by the length of the cable.  

Assembly:

The legs are pretty easy to install. Align them to the rear to the monitor ears/mounts and slide them into place. Make sure they are pressed against the frame of the monitor. Place the nuts in the captive holes in the rear and install a m4 x 20 screw with washer through the hole into the nut and tighten down. Do the same for all corners. 

To assemble the case, turn the top piece upside down and place all 5 screw buttons into the holes. Lay the control board pcb on top and make sure it's cable is routed through the hole opening. Note: You may need to straighten the LED vertically. Mine came slightly bent over. Place the bottom piece on top and squeeze down. The snap locks on the case halves should click into place securing everything snugly. Check to make sure the buttons move freely and that the LED is aligned into it's hole. Add magnets to the case and stick it wherever you like.
