Parts:
-
corner_panel_clip_4mm×4 · bin 11-clips-4mm -
midspan_panel_clip_4mm×3 · bin 11-clips-4mm - M3×8 SHCS ×11 · Fasteners, Tools & Misc box
- M3 hammerhead T-nut ×11 · Fasteners, Tools & Misc box
Do:
- Load each clip loosely: two M3×8 SHCS and nuts per corner clip, one per midspan.
- Corners first, then three midspans as p.239 shows.
- Offer the panel up, slide every clip onto its edge, tighten.
Check
Seven clips engaged on the panel edge, the panel flat against the frame with the 1 mm foam just compressed, no bowed acrylic.
Helper Counts out eleven screws and eleven hammerhead nuts, two per corner clip and one per midspan.
What you're looking at
A panel clip is a small printed part that screws to the frame and grips the panel edge in a groove. The 4mm in the name is the stack the groove is cut for: a 3 mm panel plus 1 mm of foam.
Caution
Clip-thickness assignment. The manual never says which clip goes on which panel; the print plan infers it: 3 mm panel plus 1 mm foam = 4 mm, 7 back and 8 top clips matching _4mm_x7 and _4mm_x8, M3×8 here versus M3×12 on the sides. Test-fit a 4 mm and a 6 mm clip before committing the 31. src
Tip
a drop of thread locker turns each hammerhead nut into a quarter-turn quick release, but only once the whole assembly is finished. [Voron manual p.239]
