Adafruit PiTFT Plus / Pi 3B+ Display for Ender 3/Pro
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. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4183966 F3Z File Included BOM: 7x M3x8 mm Screws Glarks 510Pcs M3 M4 M5 304 Stainless Steel Hex Socket Head Cap Screws https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0734NVR48 Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus/ LoveRPi Performance Heatsink Set for Raspberry Pi 3 B+ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018BGRDVS Adafruit PiTFT Plus 480x320 3.5" TFT+Touchscreen https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017PDWNKE **Software Installation** Since Thingiverse cant even get text formating right I have created a Gist for this. https://gist.github.com/ChaosBlades/1ff48d121fbcc263c35681e13705328b **Case Assembly Notes** Install the Pi Camera Ribbon Cable now if you are using one Sandwich the Pi between the Support and Base.
