Computer Case Front Panel Standoff
Description
UPDATE*** 6/14/20 I created some [custom gap fillers](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4460184) (wip) to go along with these. ___________________ I noticed my new computer was running really hot when gaming, and I assumed the lack of air intake on the front panel was the culprit. After I removed the front pane entirely, the temps dropped by ~15 degrees. However, I didn't want to just leave the front panel off the computer, as it completes the look. And I didn't want to modify the panel by drilling or cutting holes. I designed these standoffs because it's a reversible modification. They put the panel 30mm off the chassis. My case is an IBUYPOWER Element MR, though, I'm sure these will work on any other case that has a similar front panel with 10mm holes on the chassis and push pin clips on the front panel. And I believe this case is based on an NZXT case. I did not necessarily need all 8 to hold the front panel, I just used all 8 so I wouldn't see the other unused pins on the panel showing. And I may come back in the future and add something a little more stylish to complete the mod. Stay tuned. I imagine these would look really nice, almost stock, with an SLA printer. Here are the Cura print settings I used, but you can modify however you like: -Super Quality (Low quality for me would not print the pin parts correctly on my Ender 3 Pro) -100% infill -Tree supports enabled
