Description

I do not have an AMS, so this is split appropriately to print in separate parts. Their is an accent piece that i superglued onto the face of the model. The buttons float freely and sit snug when the front of the case is connected.

 

Major improvements

• Case “clips” together between front and rear
• PCB now mounts to the rear of the case, giving much more strength and no need for hot glue
• Additional support piece added to center as well
• Accent piece on front
• TPU plug for USB cord (optional) - Intent is for the plug to be inserted from the inside of case, with the larger brim on the inside.

 

==========================================================

 

This is a case for the info orb dev kit from brett.tech

 

Please note the soldering orientation, as it does not follow the guide Brett uses. I used the male to male pins that came in the screen box and soldered to the top of the board, so the buttons and the screen face the same direction.

 

The intention for the power cable is to remain plugged into the ESP32 device, and then come out the hole in the back.

• Added screw mounts to attach the enclosure to the underside of a shelf.
• Added additional screen support.
• Adjusted board mounting position to accommodate straight pins and sockets.
• Modified buttons to make the fitment of the front cover easier.
