Prusa MK2/MK2s/MK2.5/MK3 Removable LCD Controller (update: 08/19/2018) by elmarciano

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

After building the Prusa Enclosure for my MK2s, I wanted to have the LCD Controller outside of the enclosure. But I also wanted it to be easily removable for maintenance of the printer or to store it inside the enclosure.
This is my solution, it works by sliding LCD Controller (with the new arms attached) up to remove the LCD Controller from the brackets and sliding LCD Controller down to secure it back into the brackets. It's hangs low to make sure there's enough clearance for my enclosure doors to swing open without hitting the LCD Controller.
It works for the Prusa i3 MK2, MK2s, MK2.5 and MK3.
Please leave feedback under comments and I would love to see some "makes".
Have fun!
EDIT - 07/27/2018 -- Added compatibility with MK3 and I had forgotten about the MK2.5 (for clarity). And added more pics to the gallery.
UPDATE - 08/19/2018 -- Added LCD_Cable_Clip.v1.stl to keep and guide the LCD cables between the gap underneath the doors and the surface of the enclosure (see gallery for reference). The full kit is now v1.1.
