Replicape Kossel Mini holder
Description
PDFThis is a sunken placeholder for the Replicape and its BeagleBone Black that fits on the inside of the top frame. I sunk the frame a bit from the edges because I wanted to be able to use ChrisParish's spool holder (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:454808) on top of the electronics.
The original design was created by Elias Bakken, the creator of the Replicape, but his design would only be printable from an i3-sized bed (200x200mm), you couldn't print it in one piece on the standard KosselMini's 17cm diameter bed.
This is my answer to the issue. Three parts instead of one. The three parts are held together by the screws holding down the BeagleBone.

Assembly with the BBB & Replicape
First off, make sure your BBB and Replipcape are NOT stacked. You won't be able to screw the M3s in place to hold the BBB into the frame.
Take part 3 (the*back* part, where you have two holes facing the wall) and place it under the matching screw hole of parts 1 & 2. Place the BBB on top, and take an M3x12mm (or longer) screw for each of the back screw holes. Note that the BBB's holes are not aligned in a symmetrical rectangular pattern. Don't damage the BBB with slanted screws!Use M3 Nylock nuts to secure the BBB and holder assembly together from the underside (I suggest doing one, then a second on one side before inserting all screws).
Once your whole frame and BBB are secured together, you can fit the Replicape to the BBB.
