This pertains to the "Flashforge Adventurer 5M (AD5M) Minimal DIY Enclosure - prints faster, uses less plastic - and more" — https://www.printables.com/model/1130485-flashforge-adventurer-5m-ad5m-minimal-diy-enclosur 📷 Image redacted — claim this model to add your own media This is a set of nubs and spacer jig, for adding FF LED light bar to the riser set of the earlier Minimal Enclosure, before the new v3.0 set added the nubs back into the download set. The nubs can be attached with either glue or screws or both. Of the 3 screw holes, the top and bottom are more for attachment of the nub, while the middle screw hole is for attachment of the light bar. The holes are designed as 2.5 mm in diameter. If you design to use screws, you probably would want to pre-drill using a smaller bit, and the screws should probably be the “self tapping” type that are typically used for plastic. If it were me, I'd CA glue them in place and call it done. The spacer jig is meant to be temporary. Use painters tape to put the jig in the center as shown, and then the jig guides for placement of the nubs, as shown. 📷 Image redacted — claim this model to add your own media Please note: You can use these to retrofit the front two parts of the top riser set, so they have nubs like the OG enclosure. However, consider what I think is a better approach: putting LED strips inside the steel metal frame. That's what I did. If you attach the Flashforge LED light bar to the printed riser set, then if you ever need to remove the riser set to work on something, then you will still have a wire for the LEDs that is tethering your riser set, and you'd probably want to add into wiring some type of quick disconnect. Whereas, if the LED lights are positioned on the inside of the metal frame, then your LEDs and your wiring don't have to be disturbed — just lift the riser set away and replace it when done. Here's a link to two key listings I offered with regard to how I did my LED lights: https://www.printables.com/@design8studio/models?search=ad5m%29+led Also note: the new v3.0 riser set for the Minimal Enclosure, now includes nubs built into the print files.

Most everything will be the same or very similar. Both are below! NOTE: The two side verticals in the back... I CA-glued the top to the bottom on each, before attaching them with screws. I will look into whether something can be done to make it better.
