3D model description

This project box was made to house a 4 Fan Speed Controller, connector for AC Adapter, master on/off switch, and output for the wire connectors.

I am using Velcro strips to attach the fan controller to the inside of the box to avoid creating a mounting bracket system since this is going to be a stationary system that doesn't get touched much. The fan controller on the Instructions page has knobs that turn very easily, so should not be a concern for the controller moving. If you think you will have issues, you can add walls to the build on the inside with holes to mount it.

I will add pictures of the entire finished project. I am planning on using this to go with the Da Vinci 1.0 Fan Mount found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:634403

4/17/2015 @ 3:19pm - Added STL for my customized version of the Fan Mount for the Davinci this project is for. Squared up the walls top to bottom and added slots for the screws. I had issues with my fan's screws breaking the wall. When you put tape on the wall as per the original designer's recommendation, it will cover the gap to keep there from being any air leaks.

3D printing settings

Printed parts are 150mmx150mm so make sure your printer will work. I used a Davinci XYZ 1.0 Printer who's bed is 200mm.

My print is being done in ABS Black. You can print directly to glass if calibrated correctly and using hairspray or glue sticks. I am using glue sticks and calibrating manually with a 2.5mm metal shim from Lowes.

Using Epoxy, attach magnets to lid and box. Be sure you have the magnet polarity correct so they attract and do not repel before using epoxy. Epoxy may be needed on the on/off switch if you need to trim off expanding tabs. The hole is set for 20mm.
