Ender 3 mainboard relocation case

The Ender 3 mainboard relocation case is a printable case that moves the Creality Ender 3 mainboard to the back left and the screen to the left side, so stock cables reach after a direct-drive upgrade.

Hi all! 

I need another printer up and running, to print the parts for Fenrir and other projects, and after upgrading this Ender 3 to direct drive, the extruder stepper motor didn't have a long enough cable anymore. So I designed a case for relocating the Ender 3 mainboard to the back left to gain the reach I need. 

Yeah, I could have just lengthened the cable, but thought this would be a fun little side project. 

As you see I've also relocated the screen to the left side, to make sure the stock LCD cable is long enough, and I guess this could be handy for the lefties out there. 

I'll start the print today, and I'll upload it for all my Patrons when I've confirmed everything works as intended. :)

Thanks,
Thomas the Makerviking

Ps. I might expand on this project later with other parts for the Ender 3.
