Heavy Duty 12V 30A PSU Cover by briminey

A fairly beefy power supply cover/mount for the standard 12v 30a PSU:http://a.co/dSC2YwU
Using the standard inlet module:http://a.co/ikV2mj4
I designed this to mount to the underside of a table I'm building for the MPCNC
You'll also need 8 M4x8 screws to mount the parts to the unit (which just happened to be leftover from my Anet A8 kit, so it was perfect), 2 M3's with nuts to attach the inlet, and 8 of whatever screws you'll want to mount it to whatever you're mounting it to (if you're mounting it to something).
I'd assemble in this order:
Wire up the inlet by itself, leaving yourself 3 leads for G/N/L that are about 5-6" long.
Attach the inlet to the power supply with M3's and nuts. You'll want to use wire cutters or needle-nose pliers to hold the nuts in place... yes it's a little annoying, but in the grand scheme of all things that will annoy you over the course of your life this one really isn't too bad.
Connect the G/N/L wires to the power supply
Connect whatever 12v outlet wires you'd like and thread them through the oval-ish openings. I made them able to comfortably fit two 14 gauge wires each.
Screw the plastic parts to the PSU
Regard your work.
I make no warranties, expressed or implied, for any wiring mistakes you make. You're dealing with mains so I'm assuming you know what you're doing. If you don't, this guy seems to:http://www.instructables.com/id/Wire-Up-a-Fused-AC-Male-Power-Socket/
That guy isn't me. Be careful.
