thingiverse

A case for the Adafruit Mini Thermal Printer that won't look out of place on any desk. With mounting areas for 3 5mm LEDs, Adafruit Mini Thermal Printer (https://www.adafruit.com/product/597), button, Freetronics Buzzer module (http://www.freetronics.com.au/products/sound-and-buzzer-module) and a 10mm hole on the side for power, it comes together nicely for your next thermal printer project. Contains a spacious inside to mount an Arduino and other electronics and rests back to provide better viewing angle. A full write up on the case and code examples coming soon to Prototyping Corner (https://prototypingcorner.me) Post-Printing After printing, you may wish to glue/melt the main body and side piece together to provide better stability and overall stuctual strength. This can be done carfuly with a soldering iron and moving at a constant speed arount the perimeter (being careful not to burn the plastic). You may also wish to add rubber feet to the bottom of the case so that it doesn't slide when the button is pressed or when removing the printout.
