Horizontal LCD Control Enclosure
Created 3 days ago
Description
A horizontal electronic project enclosure designed for control panels and desktop instruments. The assembly features an internal mounting frame for a standard 1602 LCD module and four 12mm tactile push buttons. Components install from the underside of the top cover, ensuring that only the display area and button caps are visible from the exterior.
The two-part construction secures together using four M3 screws with captured hex nuts embedded in the bottom housing.
- Overall dimensions: 220mm × 140mm × 60mm
- Hardware required: 4× M3 screws, 4× M3 hex nuts
- Component mounts: 1602 LCD PCB (80x36mm) and 4× 12mm tactile switches
- Print orientation: Both parts print flat on the build plate without supports

DataStack — Enclosure Core
A lightweight, 4-bay enclosure body for 2.5" SATA HDDs. Features Stripped-down chassis with extensive material-saving cutouts Integrated rails for 4 drives Rear bosses for mounting a custom PCB backplane Designed to be printed on end (resting on the back faces) to avoid internal supports.
Vision Scale Control Box
A structured, dual-bay hardware enclosure tailored to house both an ESP32-CAM and an HX711 load cell amplifier. Built with a unified form factor to keep a vision-based smart scale or sensor node tidy, this shell manages the boards, wiring, and thermal exhaust in one place. Internal Layout: Features independent standoff patterns spaced for standard ESP32-CAM and HX711 module footprints. FDM Optimized: Horizontal ventilation tracks on the side walls print cleanly without supports. Cable Management: Drop-in U-slots on either end allow cables to be seated before securing the lid, avoiding tricky wire threading. Hardware Required: Fits standard M3 self-tapping screws for the lid, and features built-in outer flanges for securing to a bench or wall.
Manta Contour Console Grips
Echoing the sweeping, organic lines of marine life, these bionic-contoured grips transform a rigid, slim handheld into a natural extension of the hands. The bulbous outer shell fills the empty space of a relaxed grip, completely banishing the cramped claw-hand fatigue of marathon sessions. A precision-channeled core seamlessly bites onto the edges of the device without crowding the action. Design Specs The Swell: Sweeps 25mm outward from the console body to fully support the lower palm. The Fit: Parallel channels lock cleanly over a 10mm chassis edge, utilizing lead-in chamfers for a smooth, scrape-free slide. The Clearance: A minimalist 4mm front lip ensures thumbs never collide with the plastic while reaching for the D-pad. The Fabrication: Symmetrical vertical extrusions designed to sit flat on the build plate without requiring supports.
FocusLine — Reader Aid Ruler
A low-profile reader aid and metric ruler designed to block out surrounding text on standard A4 pages, keeping focus on a single line. Features Reading Window: 170mm wide slot precisely sized for A4 documents. Metric Ruler: 18cm top edge with 1mm increments for quick measurements. Personalized: Raised name plate with elegant diamond accents. Print Notes Prints perfectly flat with no supports required. Add a filament swap at 2.0mm to highlight the text and accents against the base.
VL53L0X ToF Sensor Enclosure
A compact, two-piece enclosure designed for standard VL53L0X Time-of-Flight breakout boards. It provides full protection for the PCB while maintaining a wide, unobstructed field of view for the optical sensor. What it's for Built to house a downward-facing ToF sensor. The flared aperture prevents the enclosure walls from clipping the sensor's ~25-degree conical field of view, while the flat backplate provides a clean surface for double-sided mounting tape. Dimensions Maximum Board Size: 14 mm × 19 mm (fits standard generic and Pololu breakouts) Internal Depth: 7 mm (plenty of room for direct-soldered wire joints) External Size: 18 mm × 23 mm × 9 mm (assembled) Sensor Aperture: 6 mm × 8 mm at the PCB, flaring out to 12 mm × 14 mm at the exterior Cable Routing: 8 mm wide exit slot on one end Print notes Print both parts flat on the build plate. The main body prints sensor-face down; the internal ceiling spans only 14 mm and will bridge cleanly on any well-calibrated machine without requiring supports. The lid includes a small clearance lip for a gentle friction fit.
Tiki Speaker Enclosure & Pedestal
Sliding a hollow sleeve over a speaker means the device drags on the desk if you ever need to move it. This adds a dedicated pedestal base to the enclosure. The Tiki drops into a perfectly toleranced pocket, and the Echo Dot sits flat on the floor inside it, locking everything together as a single solid unit you can actually pick up. Dimensions Pedestal Footprint: 128 mm diameter Tiki Height: 140 mm (sits 10 mm deep in the base) Clearance: 0.75 mm gap around the lip so the shell drops in without binding Cable Management: Rear cutouts in both pieces align perfectly to let the power cord out
