8 months later, 1000 hours of work, and 8 contributors later, OmniBox 0.9.10 is out!

My #3dprinter is more reliable than my 2D printer. And cost nearly the same.

Mission accomplished.

Updated BOM: ✅️
MicroSD disassembly illustration: ✅️
Front Panel keystone jack: ✅️
Easier keystone insertion: ✅️

Your mission for this weekend if you choose to accept it:

Do ONE thing you've been putting off for a long time.

I believe in you. Report back here.

@lost_in_tech @Sovol3d I use a 24" tall desk for one of my Ender 5s (instead of the usual 30"). I'm 5'10" and I still appreciate it.

A 2'x2' paver and some 12-18" blocks would give a really solid surface (cheaply) and also put the bed at a reasonable height, perhaps?

There are two folks who have requested panel mount pinout info. What connectors? How? What pin order?

I've documented a lot of this stuff and am steadily updating it as I write it up.

[OmniBox - 3D Printer Electronics Case (inactive) @TheOmniBox]

I've pushed a few documentation updates to fix issues or clarify some things.

These center around MicroSD readers.
- SKR series boards need longer extensions.
- The docs are updated to reflect if a board needs a short or long extension.
- BOM is also updated.

More...

- I also plan to add large fillets to the lower bay standoffs so that they cannot snap.

I will be busy much of this month with family stuff, but I will try to sneak in a point release with accumulated fixes.

Product support requests are still welcome, of course!

Also:

[OmniBox - 3D Printer Electronics Case (inactive) @TheOmniBox]

I fixed the documentation-related issues. I haven't fixed the SKR 1-2 tray issue yet, but it's coming up.

P.S. If you've asked for more info about the Micro Fit 3 rear panels, that's what I'm working on. More soon.

@elianarose66 I like SD cards because I *know* they are for printing and are small.

I like USB sticks because they are not annoyingly easy to lose.

Either one is better than streaming commands over a network, though!

Have a good weekend, everyone. I hope your builds are going well.

Update 🧵.

Personal note: my mom is having surgery in two weeks; after she's recovered I will be re-entering the job market. Between now and then, most of my free time will be dedicated to preparing.

I still plan to issue a point release in the next month or two.

[OmniBox - 3D Printer Electronics Case (inactive) @TheOmniBox]

This will not be part of OmniBox itself but *will* be useful for OmniBox users.

I'll link the repo once it's further along.

Now in unstable:

- MakerBase MKS Skipr
- MakerBase MKS Monster8
- Omron puck-style SSRs (G3A, G3NA) and compatible clones

Also supported: Mean Well LRS-200 (shares the LRS-350 mount).

[OmniBox - 3D Printer Electronics Case (inactive) @TheOmniBox]

MKS Skipr and Monster8 trays now in the unstable branch.

Testing out heat set inserts for MCU trays, as well.
