Download Free 3D Model WaveShare 5inch Display Housing and Display Mount 3D Print Model

Summary
NOTE: Before printing please check, if it looks sane for you! Some of the models around thingiverse seem to have been designed for a different version of the display. My display and my Raspberry did not fit into those housings, so I designed this one.
This model contains a housing that fits a WaveShare 5inch Display (Version 2) including a Raspberry PI 3.
The project contains two versions of the model:
normal box without a mount
housing with a “wall mount” with a movable arm
I use the second version to mount a Raspberry PI running Pronterface mounted to my printer-housing.
The movable arm allows routing cables inside the arm. It is basically possible to also route the power-supply inside the arm, but I still need to solder micro-usb connector that is small enough to fit into the housing.
To close the housing, I used the spacers included in the WaveShare package including addidional M3 screws for the front-plate. The arm is fixed with M3.5 metal screws. Those can be easily removed to allow access to the USB and ethernet-ports of the Raspberry PI.

The archive contains a model with and without a mount. The model without the mount only consists of the bottom and top part. The top part is also used for the model including the mount. Please ensure that you look at the files before printing and be sure that you rotate them properly.
For only the display case print
WaveShare_5inch_Bottom.stl
WaveShare_5inch_Top.stl
For the box including the mount, print
WaveShare_5inch_Top.stl
WaveShare_Mount_5inch_Bottom.stl
WaveShare_Mount_5inch_Mount_Top.stl
WaveShare_Mount_5inch_Mount_Plate.stl
I used slic3r for slicing. During the print I used white ABS. To ensure that the round parts came out nicely, I had to manually tune the support material settings.
The wall mount prints best, if printed on the side to ensure that the round parts are completely circular.
Note: The movable arm could use a drop of oil (yes oil, not WD40). Not much, so it does not drip out but enough to make it move smoothly.
