Printing Instructions
- Recommended Materials: PETG, or PLA (high temperature resistant variant)
- Nozzle: 0.4mm, printing quality to highest quality if possible (e.g. 0.08mm fine/extra fine)
- Print Direction: Lay the out-wards facing surface to the printing plate (see illustration below)
- Print Support: It may not need support, I find small amount of overhangs errors does not affect the installations (actually helps with easier insertion); If you do want support, only use the support around the side edges, don’t use support for the switch holder area.
- Brim: Add outer brim only, without the brim the ethernet parts may not stick to the bed well enough, or you maybe able to print correctly using glues etc to increase the adhesives without brim.
- Post Processing: Since these are small parts & compartments, during post process, you must clean up any print overhangs, mainly two places:
- switch placeholders & ping gaps (4 pins on left & right), as there might be small amount of overhangs flow into the small gaps (test the switch can sit in the case snuggly before soldering)
- Left/right sider overhands, may need to be trimmed & cleaned with knifes for installing & fitting the side panel.
