# 3D Printing Guide

This guide provides instructions for printing the piDSLM enclosure.

## Quick Start

1. Print the main enclosure parts (see part list below)
2. Assemble using provided screws and magnets
3. Install Raspberry Pi, camera, and display
4. Attach optional grip modules

## Part List

### Required Parts

| Part | Quantity | Print Time | Material |
|------|----------|------------|----------|
| main_body.stl | 1 | 4-6 hours | PLA/PETG |
| top_cover.stl | 1 | 2-3 hours | PLA/PETG |
| side_panel.stl | 1 | 2-3 hours | PLA/PETG |

### Optional Parts

| Part | Quantity | Print Time | Material |
|------|----------|------------|----------|
| grip_standard.stl | 1 | 1-2 hours | PLA/PETG |
| grip_horizontal.stl | 1 | 1-2 hours | PLA/PETG |
| tripod_mount.stl | 1 | 30 min | PLA/PETG |

## Print Settings

### Base Settings
- **Layer Height**: 0.2mm
- **Infill**: 20% (structural parts), 10% (decorative)
- **Wall Thickness**: 2.4mm (3 walls)
- **Top/Bottom Layers**: 4 layers

### Recommended Materials
- **PLA**: Easiest to print, good for first attempts
- **PETG**: More durable, better heat resistance
- **ABS**: Best for outdoor use, requires enclosure

## Assembly Instructions

### 1. Print All Parts
Print all required parts before assembly.

### 2. Prepare Magnets
Heat magnets to ~60°C and press into designated slots in main_body.stl.

### 3. Assemble Enclosure
1. Place Raspberry Pi into main body
2. Connect camera ribbon cable
3. Attach top cover (snaps into place)
4. Insert magnets to secure camera module
5. Screw side panel into place

### 4. Attach Grip (Optional)
Snap grip module into place using magnetic attachment.

### 5. Install Display
Connect display to GPIO headers through side panel opening.

## Troubleshooting

### Parts Won't Fit
- Ensure print scale is 100%
- Check layer height consistency
- Slight sanding may be needed for tight fits

### Weak Magnet Hold
- Use stronger N52 grade magnets
- Ensure magnet slots are fully printed
- Add adhesive to magnet retention

### Cable Too Short
- Consider extending ribbon cables
- Use flexible flat cables
- Re-route through cable channels

## Tips

- Print in multiple colors for aesthetic appeal
- Leave magnet slots open for easier insertion
- Use PETG for parts exposed to heat
- Seal exterior with matte clear coat

# Pipeline Context (MARISOL.md)

# MARISOL.md — Pipeline Context for piDSLM

## Project Overview
piDSLM is a Raspberry Pi-based Digital Single Lens Mirrorless camera interface with GPIO controls, gallery display, and Dropbox upload functionality using guizero GUI. (from README.md lines 1-12, requirements.txt lines 1-4)

## Pipeline History
- 2026-03-29 — Created comprehensive MARISOL.md documentation with complete pipeline context and cross-verified facts from source files
- 2026-03-28 — Fixed merge conflict markers in dropbox_upload.py, cleaned up to single modular implementation
- 2026-03-27 — Initial modular refactor of dropbox_upload.py with parse_args, should_skip_file, upload functions

## Notes
- Access token required in dropbox_upload.py (TOKEN constant) — dropbox_upload.py line 19
- Downloads folder: /home/pi/Downloads — pidslm.py line 79, dropbox_upload.py line 57
- Image output: /home/pi/Downloads/*.jpg — pidslm.py line 79
- Video output: /home/pi/Downloads/*.h264 — pidslm.py line 85
- GPIO pin 16 (BCM) for shutter button — pidslm.py line 21
- Display path: /home/pi/piDSLM/icon/ — INSTALL.sh line 3

## Environment
- Docker image: lotus-rpi-python:latest (from project context)
- Python: 3.12.3 (verified via pytest platform output)
- Hardware: Raspberry Pi 2/3/4 + HQ Camera + MHS35-TFT display (from README.md lines 15-20)
- GPIO: BCM mode, pin 16 for button input (from pidslm.py line 21)

## Dependencies (from requirements.txt)
- Pillow (Python Imaging Library) — requirements.txt line 1
- guizero (GUI framework) — requirements.txt line 2
- dropbox (Dropbox API SDK) — requirements.txt line 3
- guizero[images] (image support) — requirements.txt line 4

## Source Files
- pidslm.py — Main GUI application (lines 1-152, actual: 1-106)
- dropbox_upload.py — Dropbox sync utility (lines 1-198, actual: 1-198)
- INSTALL.sh — Installation script (lines 1-24, actual: 1-24)
- PiDSLR.fzz — 3D enclosure design file
- pidslm.desktop — Desktop auto-start configuration (lines 1-4, actual: 1-4)

## Test Files (tests/)
- conftest.py — Auto-generated fixture with 15+ RPi hardware mocks, provides source_module fixture for loading repo modules
- embedded_mocks.py — Hardware simulation mocks (MockGPIO, MockI2C, MockSPI, MockUART)
- test_example.py — Example test template with 2 passing tests (test_gpio_pin_control, test_i2c_communication)

## Key Functions
### dropbox_upload.py
