Description

PDF

My MK4 is on a sideboard and stands over the edge. As a result, you can not see the great new LED status bar of the MK4. This model solves the problem my MK4 and also fits in any Prusa XL/MK3.5/MK3.9. It is a small light pipe and fits perfectly in the opening at the bottom of the display. No screws or glue are needed.

It almost looks like Prusa shipped it right out of the box. Prusa - why didn't you come up with this idea? ;-)

Print instructions

  • Print this model. Align the model as in the file. You need no support!
  • I use Prusament PETG Clear

Assembly

  • Rotate the printed part once to install. The noses must be at the top. The lower edge can then be pushed through to the PCB and then closes the opening flush. See pictures.

The idea for this project comes from Big Dutch. Great idea, but i want a design which looks like it come from Prusa directly. My model fits perfectly in the frame and stands out only 1.5 mm. In addition, it comes without hooks.
