Hi fellow makers,
I finally decided to publish this project on which I have been working on the last couple of weeks.
I really like to run my printer with the repetier Server application via an Rapsberry Pi and a web browser. But from time to time it is handy to have a direct interface next to the printer and therefor I decided to add a decent touchscreen to my Ikea-Lack enclosure. Luckily Repetier-Server support this feature as well and provides a very nice user interface on the screen.
But unfortunately I was not able to find a good "console-Style" enclosure for the original Raspberry Pi 7" Touchscreen, therefor I had to design and build my own. Due to my current setup I also wanted to tilt the screen up to a certain angle when using it to have a more ergonomic working position, but on the same side it is necessary to safely store it when I do not use it to avoid accidents :-)
Now you know the story behind this THING.
I hope you enjoy this design and modify it to your according needs as I did adopt it to mine.
So happy printing...
