Description

Warning This is designed for the exact parts in the BOM and nothing else. If you choose to use something not in the BOM then YMMV.

For mounting the PiTFT Plus and Raspberry Pi 3B+ in a case on the left side of the Ender 3/Pro that is designed to match the stock screen on the right side of the printer.

This supports using all the cables including the Pi Camera Ribbon Cable except the HDMI port if you have the stock end stop. If you have ABL then you can remove the stock end stop and use the HDMI port.

Temperature of the Pi sits around 50-55C. I have never seen it get higher than 61C. This is in a 70F room.

If you plan on doing some soldering on the back of your PiTFT Plus then check out my Safety Cover to protect the glass screen linked below.

Software Installation
Since Thingiverse cant even get text formating right I have created a Gist for this.

Case Assembly Notes

Install the Pi Camera Ribbon Cable now if you are using one

Sandwich the Pi between the Support and Base.

Install the 3 Screws

Feed your Wires / Pi Cam Ribbon Cable through the I/O hole on the Face

Install the remaining 4 Screws

When installing onto the Ender 3 start both screws and leave loose

Press down firmly on the section of the Face just below the Touch Screen

Then while holding it down tighten the screws. The screen should now not wobble up and down when you touch the screen.
