RAMPS and MOSFET box for AM8-style printers

RAMPS and MOSFET box for AM8-style printers

Description

A Voronoi-pattern box for RAMPS and two MOSFETs, mountable on an AM8 or similar printer using 2040 extrusions. The Arduino and MOSFETS can be mounted using M3x10 screws. A structure in the top-right corner can be used for cable management, if you wish. A 120 mm fan can be mounted on the lid. The lid requires four M3x10 screws to secure, and the box is mounted to the printer using up to six M5 screws and T-slot nuts. An optional additional mounting bracket is included, which can be screwed to the back of the box with two M3x10 screws and mounted to the frame with up to seven M5 screws, although it should not be needed in most cases. The source file requires [dotSCAD](https://github.com/JustinSDK/dotSCAD). Note that it will take a large amount of RAM and time to render as-is; for previewing, set `cell_density_downscale` to a large number to reduce the complexity of the Voronoi pattern. The Voronoi pattern of the walls contains some large overhangs, so you will need supports in order to print this well. Do yourself a favour and calibrate your overhangs first, to minimise supports. All M3 holes are self-tapping; this works best when printing in a softer plastic like PETG, but should be doable in PLA. I would recommend a large nozzle, e.g. .8 mm, as the full box takes ages to print otherwise.
