Anet A8 AM8 Control board and FET Driver board enclosure
Description
Update: Apr 10, 2020 I Added A Reset Lever To The Base Design. The Lever Simply Slides Into The Air Holes In The Side Of The Case And Snaps Into Place. The "Block" On The Outside Goes Up To Prevent The Lever From Sagging And Touching Any Other Components (Fet Driver Boards In My Case). This Will Only Work For A Ramps 1.X Board Installation. If I Recall Correctly, The Anet A8 Reset Was On The Top And Middle Of The Board. I Also Uploaded All The .Stp Files For The V3 Case, Cover, And Reset Lever. Disclaimer: I'M Still Using V2 Which Doesn'T Have Quite The Same Hole Size And Spacing. I Had To Give My Case A Few Touches With A Dremel Tool To Enlarge The Holes. This Should Work With V3 Of The Case Design, I Just Haven'T Tested It. Please Let Me Know If You Have Any Problems. Update: Feb 29, 2020 V3 Of The Board Should Now Support Both The Anet A8 Motherboard And A Ramps 1.X With An Arduino Mega 2560. The Arduino Board Is Positioned To Put The Usb Connector In The Back. This Is An Enclosure For An Anet A8/Am8 Build. I'M Not Sure If There Is A Difference, But It Was Designed For The Version 1.5 Control Board With The Reset In The Middle Of The Board. The Enclosure Was Designed To Have A Very Tight Tolerance Around The Sdcard Slot To Make It Easy To Get The Card In And Out And To Prevent The Sdcard To Slip Into The Enclosure With Mis-Insertions. The Enclosure Cover Simply Slides Into The Slide Slots And Then Snaps Into Place Under The Clip. The Holes Are Designed For The M3 Screws That Came With The Original Anet A8 Kit. 5Mmx10Mm Bolts For Attaching To The 2040 Extrusion. There Are 2 Holes In The Right Side Of The Enclosure To Allow For Attaching On 2 Sides Of The Extrusion, But Once I Got It Assembled, The 3 Bolts On The Outside Of The Enclosure Bracket Were More Than Enough. I'Ve Included The Sketchup Files In Case You Want To Modify For Your Application. Credit To Cpt_Spekkie For The Design I Based This Off Of. Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2330654 I Created The Cad Files From Scratch But It Was Based On Cpt Spekkie Design So I Marked This As A Remix. I'M New Here And Not Sure When You Click On The Remix Button. Apologies If I'Ve Marked It Incorrectly.
