Paneldue

It looks like SeeMeCNC is planning a Paneldue option sometime. There is a punch-out in place for the wiring and a couple of pre-drilled mounting holes in the top plate.
I bought a Paneldue 7i and used a slight mod of this case https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2799628 to install it.
The mod is 1. Shorten the mounting arm by 20mm. 2. Offset the mounting bracked when printing to cut off the 90 degree angle part.
I used one of the pre-drilled mounting holes (enlarged to 5mm) and drilled one more to mount it to the top section.
It's really nice to have the color touch-screen on the printer. I mostly like it for the temperatures and completion estimates.
I printed the case in PETG which I don't really have a handle on yet (my first try using it) so it's a bit rough. I printed the mounting parts in ABS which worked great.
