FloppyEmuDiskIIEnclosure

History

ThorstenB 93cf68a780 Several minor improvements: - Changed "reset button" to a small round button, while the three control buttons keep their larger/rectangular shape. The reset button is barely needed. The round shape avoids confusion when operating the device. - Minor correction of the proportions of the outer shell - to match the real Disk II more closely.		2023-09-22 15:24:29 +02:00

README

This folder contains the small sized variant of the FloppyEmu Disk II enclosure. It's 60% of the size of the original Disk II.
It's just big enough to hold the FloppyEmu PCB.
The front panel holds the FloppyEmu's orginal 1.7" LCD, a single 3mm LED (drive status) and the button panel.

Hints for printing:
* The models should be printed with their flat side facing downwards.
* Preferably use white or light gray filament for the top shell, base plate, and for the rear panel.
* Use black filament for the front panel and the buttons.
* The models are optimized to reduce 3D "supports", however, the top shell and the front panel still need "supports" to be enabled when printing.
* The buttons/brackets and base-plate print without "supports".
* The infill setting doesn't matter (design does not contain any large filled volumes).
* The design printed fine with an Ender 3v2 printer, sliced with Ultimaker Cura using stock settings.

Printing Duration (estimates for an Ender 3v2):
* Top shell: about 7 hours.
* Front and rear panel: about 1:30 hours.
* Buttons and mounting brackets: about 30 minutes.
