I needed a sleek, modern-looking case for a 10" touch display, but couldn't find one, so I designed my own. This case includes a fan mount, cooling ports, a stand, a monitor arm and extra internal space for future components.
Update: Finished all parts, printed and tested them for final release. Please let me know if any problems occured. If you are happy with the design leave a like and post your print.
For assembly, you will need:
A 10" touch display I used this one: https://amzn.eu/d/3j8Gwi8
8x 1x8mm magnets (inexpensive and available on Amazon or similar stores).
M3x5,7x4.6mm heated inserts: I used these: https://amzn.eu/d/5dyGA80
If you use the stand: 16 pieces,12 without the fan
If you use the monitor arm: 28 pieces in the shortest configuration (2 joints), 24 without the fan
For the stand assembly:
12x M3x5,7x4,6mm treaded inserts – for every hole on the stand + backcover assembly
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the hinge to the back cover.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the hinge to the stand.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to attach the foot to the stand.
1x M5 x 30mm screw – to secure the two hinges and adjust the monitor tilt (use a hex
nut to lock the screen angle if desired).
For the monitor arm assembly:
24x M3x5,7x4,6mm treaded inserts - for every hole on the monitor arm base, extension, mounting and backcover assembly.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the 1.hinge to the back cover.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the 1.hinge to the arm mounting.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the 2.hinge to the arm mounting.
4x M3 x 10mm screws – to connect the 2.hinge to the arm extension.
4x M3 x 12mm screws – to connect the arm extension to the base.
2x M5 x 30mm screw – to secure the two hinges and adjust the monitor tilt (use a hex
nut to lock the screen angle if desired).
If you want more than 2 joints you have to add 8x M3 screws and inserts for each extension part.
