Anet A8 Laser Cut Acryllic Power Supply & Motherboard Case
Description
This Is A Very Neat Way To Tidy Up All The Electronics Of The Anet A8. It Has Been Laser Cut In 3 Mm Black Acrylic. I Painted The Engravings By Using Spray Paint On A Brush, Painting Fully Over The Engraving, Removing The Excess With Paper Towel And Cleaning Up The Residue With A Cloth Soaked In Cellulose Thinners. This Creates A Very Sleek Look And The Whole Thing Looks Like It Was There From Factory. Glue All The Pieces Together With Superglue In The Joins Apart From The Front Which Screws On. I Added A Beeper To The Anet A8 Using The Spare "Led_Pin". You Can See This As Well As Other Pin Mappings For The Anet V1.0 Board In This Thing: Https://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:2103748 I Configured My Firmware To Feature A Beeper And Defined The Beeper Pin In Pins.H Appropriately. I Used This Piezo Beeper Module: Http://Www.Ebay.Co.Uk/Itm/162273401946?_Trksid=P2057872.M2748.L2649&Sspagename=Strk%3Amebidx%3Ait If You Want Any Extra Information On How To Add This Feature Or Using This Spare Pin For Any Other Function, Just Leave A Comment. I Also Added An Emergency Stop Button Using A Simple Push To Make Switch Connected Between The Ground And Reset Pins Of "J3". This Works Really Well And Stops Any Moves / Heaters Immediately. Great For Bed Crashes! There Is Also Space For A 40 Mm Fan. One Switch On The Psu Case Is For Mains Power And One Can Be Used For Lighting Or Something Else. The Hole For The Socket Will Accept A Standard Iec Socket. You Will Have To Remove The Mainboard And Screw The Case Behind It And The Same With The Power Supply. Important Note: The Power Supply Case Is Designed For A Upgraded 33 Amp Power Supply (The One With The Fan) And Not Stock 20 Amp One. They Have Different Dimensions. The Motherboard Case Should Work On All Anet A8'S. Disclaimer: I Take No Responsibility For Any Harm That May Arise As A Result Of Making The 220/110V Connections. Ensure You Are Competent To Handle Such Voltages And Do So At Your Own Risk.
