Prusa MK3S 3.5" PiTFT Mode by aharbick
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago
I started with this excellent design https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3372513 and learned a few things and designed a couple of additional parts that were helpful.
Additional needed hardware:
Pi 4B (2GB is enough): https://www.adafruit.com/product/4292
PiTFT Plus 3.5": https://www.adafruit.com/product/2441
Pi Camera V2: https://www.adafruit.com/product/3099
Longer camera cable: https://www.adafruit.com/product/2143
MicroSD card: https://www.adafruit.com/product/2693
Buck converter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N3QT628
Red/black cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D74RGVM
Eye connectors: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E4RAVI0
90-degree USB C cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VJNQT6F
Helpful documentation/examples I found:
Follow Octoprint installation: https://octoprint.org/download/
PiTFT instructions: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pitft-3-dot-5-touch-screen-for-raspberry-pi/easy-install-2
Not a Prusa but a nice example of wiring up a buck converter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK7URi5LZhQ
Lessons / Assembly details:
From the original design... the "clearance of 25mm" is CRUCIAL otherwise the screen mounts don't fit and the printer bed runs into the screen... I overlooked that multiple times. That is why I've included the "tpu_foot". They just pop into the frame.
In order for the PiTFT to fit into the case you have to snap the tables with circular mounts off of the unit. I used some needle-nose pliers and just bent them towards the back of the board and they snapped off easily.
When connecting to the EINSY board on the Prusa only the left 4 terminals come from the PSA. I originally connected to the heat-bed terminals and obviously got no power. Use a volt meter to find which terminals have power and be sure to connect to the correct red/black cables.
When cutting up your USB-C cable you may not have a black cable. Apparently this is a cost saving technique. There are typically some bare wires inside of the shield that are the black/negative wires.
Printing/assembly details:
Use TPU to print the "tpu" parts. I used 92A SainSmart (it's really nice and squishy): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08L3NDG3H
Other parts I printed with PLA 0.2mm.
The buck converter above doesn't fit in the original case (yours might) which is why I've included the "tpu_buck_converter_holder". I didn't put holes in it because I wasn't sure how it would work with TPU/infill... I printed with 50% infill on this part and then just drilled holes. Because it's TPU they "close up" so you need a bigger bit than you think. Once you've drilled the holes push the buck converter holder into the frame on the bottom. Then use a M3x5mm hex-head screw and just work it through the buck converter corner holes and into the holes you drilled.
These wire strippers were awesome for stripping the wire, crimping the eye connector on, etc. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OQ21CA
