3D model description

I was unhappy with the standard printed case that Printrbot suggests for the LCD v2 (with card reader). Moving my metal simple with hits heated bed, associated big power supply and the non-attached LCD screen was just ridiculous. Buying an extension for the power supply solved one problem (can now disconnect the power from the pigtail rather than from the board itself), but I needed to attach the LCD. I found several options and ended up remixing this case with a shortened version of the pedestal stands I found in THIS model: LCD Screen Printbot metal simple, by vincentjalink.

Because I wanted a good connection between the front foot/stand and the LCD case, I changed where the split in the case happened- it's now parallel with the face/screen. The board affixes to the face with 4 m3 screws that I had lying around- *Note: I had to tap out the holes- consider enlarging a wee bit!

The lid/face is a nice tight snap fit to the base, with slots for a screwdriver, should you ever need to pop it apart again. I used hot glue in the slots for the feet to make sure they stayed put. You could probably tinker and make a better friction fit, but I didn't feel the need.
