Ender 3 compact display mod

Summary

I started a video series in which I modify an Ender 3 pro in an unusual way. I started with making it foldable and in order to do this I had to find another location for the power supply and display. Because I’ve been asked about this display mod in particular I decided to upload this separately like I’ve done with the power supply mod.

The video in which I add this mod to my Ender 3 in order to make it foldable

Print Settings

Printer: Creality Ender 3 pro
Rafts: No
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.2
Infill: 30%
Filament: Nylon CF

Notes:

I have used Nylon with carbon fiber because of the aesthetics, but PLA, PETG, ABS etc. should work as well.

Parts needed

5× M5×10mm bolts
4× M4×8-10 bolts
4× M3 inserts for the inserts version
The standard M3 bolts can be used

If you use the version without inserts, I recommend tapping the M3 thread. The wall is very thin and you should probably use pliers to prevent cleaving. I haven’t tried this and please let me know if you experience any issues.

This is a very, very good stl! It really helps to reduce the space occupied by the 3d printer

This is a really neat mod. However, I’d like to suggest that you deboss the logo instead so that the faceplate can be printed flat.

Another great design, I remixed this design to fit on my ender 3 pro as my frame has been modified, which did not allow me to use as it was, it’s a great new position for the lcd, and the angle is so much nicer, good job and thanks once again
