I was having issues with my Solidoodle 4 locking up. Long and short of the story, my Solidoodle 4 is now a Frankendoodle 4 (see my other posts). I added a headed bed that was 200w and needed a bigger power supply than the XBOX type what was attached. I found a 33A/360W one on eBay; however, my OCD got the better of me and I designed a case to cover the power supply and added a switch. It was getting old to "pull the plug" to turn off the printer.

A little learning on the IEC socket wiring. (I'll post this diagram a bit later; but google will help)

I cut up an old computer cord for the IEC wiring and use from the power supply to the printer. Recommend 15 Gauge Stranded Wire

Used another computer power cord from the case to the wall.
