Disco & Daylight Stick mount for Voron Trident Bed

Hardware

• 4x M3x8
• 4x M3 Roll-in nuts or M3 hammer-head t nuts
• 2x M3x5
• 2x M3 Heatset Inserts (voron style)

File Selection

All Parts files & BambuStudio Project

The all_parts files have all the options for the given size.  For these, pick the diffuser size (x1 or x3) that your printer is able to print, pick the thickness you want (or print each and test) and then print one each of the housings.  Don't try to print them multi-color, move the black parts to a separate build plate.

Diffuser

Print the housing in whatever color you want.  Use Natrual ASA for the diffuser.  There are three diffuser thicknesses to choose from and there are full-length diffusers and ⅓ length diffusers (in case you're printing on a smaller printer).

Diffuser Thickness

The pictures show the 1.4mm diffuser and LEDs running at colors set at 10% brightness.  Print samples of each (the x3 files work well for this) and test what suits your needs.

Housing

There are two housing options.  One has a cutout for the cable exit.

Installation

1. Install the heatset inserts into both of the housings.
2. Use roll in nuts or hammer-head t nuts to mount the two housings to the front of the bed support extrusion.  Make sure the two housings are snug against each other in the middle.  Use the M3x8 bolts here.
3. Cut wire to length.  I'd suggest running from the very end of the housing, out the hole, along the back bed support extrusion, through the bed cable chain, and into the electronics bay.
4. Crimp the wire, then route it.
5. Plug the wire into the PCB.
6. Make sure the wire nests into the channel inside the housing and doesn't get squished by the PCB or the plug.
7. Screw the PCB onto the housing.  Use the M3x5 bolts here.
8. Starting from the outside end, snap the diffuser into place.  If using the x3 variant, install the middle one on the end and then slide it from the end to the middle, then install the other two from their respective ends.
9. Connect the other end of the wire to your control board.
