To kickstart this conversation here is a pic of my implementation of the Octoprint-DisplayPanel. I incorporated the screen and buttons into the skirt of my Voron 0 which required some 3D printed mounts for the switches that I solvent welded into the hexagonal pockets in the skirt. I had to bend the screens pins down to ensure good clearance with my printers PSU. I think it looks pretty good. |

The hexagonal buttons are sick. This would also be cool as a button bar across the top of the CR-6 SE if I hadn’t already top-mounted my spool. |

Hi @sethvoltz Fixed this a while ago and checked when I added my Thingiverse link earlier, think the last two posts (three including this one) can go now... Think the beta stuff is giving me grief - I'll fiddle with the post again later.. |

I love my little Micro Panel. I only need the display and not interested in the buttons. At least not yet. Like keeping track of the progress at the printer since my computer is not close sometimes. Here are some pictures of a redesigned housing I found on Thingiverse with the addition of the housing for the display. I wanted my Pi to be PoE powered and also get the feed from the Pi Camera via HDMI. Like neat cabling. Here are a few pictures of it:
Also housed the camera and attached it to the Z gantry. Not the optimal position for a camera but good enough to keep an eye on things. Happy with how it all came together.

Loving the camera - is it adjustable? |

@Andy-ABTec Thank you. Not this iteration. Working on a lower one to be able to see closer to the level of the print bed and have been toying with being able to adjust camera angle but not putting much effort into this since my camera ends up only pointing at same spot 99% of the time. Designed to be part of the current printer design and to keep an eye on operation of machine only. Not really interested in shooting time lapses or movies and the current position is not ideal for this as it sits a little too high from tip of print head. One design tradeoff to simplicity. |

I was just interested because I have a HeroMe Gen5 on my Ender 3 and am having a devil of a job "seeing" between the cooling duct and the bed... |

This build is fantastic. The yellow contrasting with the black case is very nice. Very clean |
