Prusa MK3/MK2 Bear Upgrade LCD & Camera
Description
I stumbled on the amazing Prusa i3 Bear Upgrade v2.0 by pekcitron and expanded on it a little bit. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2808408 I have built this same setup 3 times now, two MK3's and an MK2.5. Additions to the stock upgrade - Pi print server, 7" touch screen, HD camera. I tapped the cross bars and used 4 more of the z-caps with screws instead of the little bear covers with set screws.The camera position isn't perfect, the camera is so close its hard to get a good view of the build plate. It works for my intent though which is just to see if the print has issues when running remotely. I originally set everything up with octoprint, but later switched to repetier server because I feel that it has a better touch screen layout. when I mounted the pi on the screen i mounted it inverted from how it is usually mounted, I needed to clip some pins but it gave me the lowest profile.
