Mean Well LRS-350 mount/cover/inlet for AM8 frame

Description

Here's a mount design, for attaching a Mean Well LRS-350 power supply to pheneeny's AM8 remix. It securely mounts the supply to the printer, fully encloses the supply terminals and AC connections, and holds a switched/fused power inlet module.

The mount is designed to support the weight of the supply on the XY frame of the printer instead of the Z frame - there is a small connector that goes between the supply and the Z frame but this just serves to keep the supply from wobbling. The "step" in the bottom of the bracket is intended to clear the larger HBLFSDW5 Y-to-Z bracket that I'm using on my AM8 build, while keeping the AC inlet low on the printer frame and securely attached to it.

Overall it's a fairly heavy design that that requires about 100g of plastic, but the result is a stiff bracket that you won't worry about breaking if you pull on the power cord or transport the printer.

You'll need a snap-in, switched/fused IEC inlet such as this one. They can be found all over eBay and Aliexpress:

And to mount the LRS350 supply to the printer, you'll need four M4x8mm flat head screws. Do not use shorter or longer screws, shorter ones won't securely hold the supply and longer ones could potentially short out the guts of the power supply.

I printed with 35% infill in Cura, and used zig-zag supports with a 2.5mm line spacing. Since the cover contains line voltage, technically you should use a UL94 rated flame retardant filament, but I don't expect everyone here to be getting their builds UL certified :)

OpenSCAD files are attached. It's a disorganized mess, I apologize.

No pictures are up yet, they'll be up soon - I printed the bracket and mocked it up with the loose parts of my AM8 frame, and it seems to be OK.
