Monochron Case

thingiverse

*I will add pictures of the printed devices when I have a couple moments.* Here's a case I made for my MonoChron clock. I printed the version called NoHolesCutLetters-AsPrinted.stl, but have included other candidates, unprinted. The one with side holes for the buttons will not work as is, you must cut the mesh with MeshMixer and print in pieces then glue together; too much work for me! Instead, I moved all the controls that stick out the sides to the back of the board on the proto area. I flipped the switch for the alarm to face inwards. For the power plug, I cut the traces on the 5+ and GND so I could mount the plug on the backside of the board, reversed, ie facing inwards. I had to jumper the power and ground, but it worked beautifully. I'll update with pictures. I also used clear tape to hold the centers of the letters and the logo in place, and backlit the logo with two LEDS running off the 5V coming from the screen. I've included a STL of the MonoChron itself if you want to edit things and wish to use it as a gauge. It is accurate *except* there is a bump by the backlight on the right of the screen which sticks out a couple mm, be aware.
