remove old unsupported OLED mount/cutout/panel

the mount/cutout wasn't in a sensible place in the only panel it
appeared in for a while, so removing it for now until/unless there's a
reason to do it better, but in all likelihood, I'll just keep reusing
the adafruit one

 Included is a summary of changes to the project, by version. Details can be found in the commit history.
 
+## v4.7.1
+
+### Fixes
+
+* Hull-based decorative plates were accidentally grown in v4.7.0 due to ye olde refactoring. They are back to the
+  dimensions they should be (give or take) because there was an underlying bug in how they were geometried pre-v4.7.1.
+* The docs/ directory in the build now includes the images referred to, especially in the README.
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+* Some README tweaks, including another demonstrative photo.
+* The build creates both a ZIP of everything, including docs, for humans to download, and also a ZIP of *just* the STLs,
+  to ease uploading to Printables.
+
+## v4.7.0
+
+### Features
+
+* Inner wall pieces where the horizontal stripes jut through the horizontal stripe windows have been added, these look
+  decent and avoid the outer wall feeling extremely flimsy. This piece uses a "longish" front/back piece which isn't
+  retained as a separate piece, because the latter is not meant to be printed itself.
+* I somehow went this whole time without creating a simple Sega 2P layout panel and decorative plate; those have been
+  added.
+* Prototype (still literally a bit rough) braces for the corners and middle have been added. These pieces cover up the
+  seams of the frame, and add some visual depth and distinction, but are not for everyone. YMMV.
+* A new "superplate" of the "directional arc + W" plus "sega 2P nine" layouts combined has been added, this is a piece I
+  ended up not using in a build, but it functions as well as any of the plates, so why not.
+
+### Improvements
+
+* Visible round edges have been made more round.
+* The single-24mm-button decorative disc has been shrunk a bit, since (IMO) it stood out a bit too much relative to the
+  button.
+* The "longish" extended side has been made a bit simpler to construct.
+* The side piece construction has been reworked, making it a bit simpler to construct and reducing the build complexity,
+  though preview mode still complains about 2-manifold errors.
+* The assembly documentation has been cleaned up, with more pieces explained a bit better as well.
+* Dustwashers got some small updates to shrink the size of the disc to the normal JLF dustwasher size, and to fit the
+  shaft a bit tighter without obstructing the lever's ability to... be a lever.
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+* The build has been improved to error when there are issues in the .scad files, to keep me from making bad packages.
+* The back pieces are aligned properly in the all together demo.
+* Updates to the docs on my preferred printing settings.
+* README updates following the previous releases' reorganizations.
+* Objects README update to add attribution to TheTrain.
+
+## v4.6.0
+
+### Features
+
+* All frame pieces were updated to have flush edges, a la the "extended" sides, rather than the seam between the
+  front/back and the sides being at a 45 degree angle on some pieces, with the latter meaning that we were maintaining
+  two (complicated) duplicates of the same pieces because both 45 degree and 90 degree angles were necessary. This does
+  not affect the look of the build much, but simplifies the print and the maintenance of the project.
+* A slightly-extended flat side piece was added, to add just a bit of length to the overall build.
+
+### Improvements
+
+* One more slash has been added to the frame pieces, just for more interesting visuals.
+* The rectangle plates' positioning was tweaked slightly.
+
+### Fixes
+
+* The frame solid was very slightly shorter than it should have been as the corners relied on cylinders. The core solid
+  is now at its proper dimensions.
+
+## v4.5.0
+
+### Features
+
+* Many components for the Buildable Stick System - Arcade Edition --- pieces to create a control enclosure for the Qanba
+  2009 base! These pieces live in `extras/bss-ae/` but do use some parts from the base project; check that subdir's
+  README.
+* Created a Sega 2P 11 button layout, basically following the curve of the fourth column and adding a fifth, plus one
+  extra button
+* More decorative plates, this time square ones for an NES-styled project.
+
+### Improvements
+
+* Button layout positions for Sega 2P and directional arc layouts have been parameterized.
+* The decorative plates for the directional arc + W and Sega 2P 9 layout have been split into two files, since there was
+  no reason to keep them as one with multiple pieces anymore.
+* Tweaks to the horizontal stripes in order to get them to print better.
+* Renamed "Sega 2P plus one" to Sega 2P 9, following the pattern of the 11 layout.
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+* Renaming of extended side pieces to fit the front/back idiom.
+* Cleanups to the demos.
+
+## v4.4.3
+
+### Features
+
+* Windowed frame wall pieces were made for the "clean" front/back walls that line up with the extended sides.
+
+### Improvements
+
+* The inner wall piece has been thickened, bringing its surface closer to the end of the outer wall windowed frame
+  pieces, making the window less deep and the inner wall easier to see.
+* The inner wall piece has been shrunken on the Z in order to leave some material on the outer wall and thus improve the
+  friction fit and clamp of the outer wall piece, which was too weakened by the unsupported top and bottom otherwise.
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+* Documentation updates, especially around the printing of parts.
+* Corrected the names of some pieces that were accidentally duplicated from the file they were copied from rather than
+  what they were, or otherwise didn't match the standard pattern (such as it is).
+
+## v4.4.2
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+* Fix a regression with the small button screw-in space cutting into the frame wall supports. The screw-in space is
+  potentially more important for some nuts than the thickness of the frame wall supports, so the latter have been
+  thinned slightly.
+
+## v4.4.1
+
+### Features
+
+* A new lever + Sega 2P 6 button panel has been added. The overhang version hadn't been updated in forever, but the
+  inset panel moved stuff around in a way that allowed a couple aux buttons to fit in, so those have been added to the
+  overhang panel as well.
+* A horizontal stripe frame windowed piece has been added. YMMV may vary a bit on this vs. an empty window --- you can
+  see less of the inner object with the stripes, but it's a bit more stable.
+
+### Improvements
+
+* The frame wall slashes have been made a bit more reusable.
+* The area around button holes for screw-ins has been tweaked to be a bit smaller for 30mm buttons and a bit larger for
+  24mm buttons.
+
+### Miscellaneous
+
+* A bottom overhang panel was positioned incorrectly in the demo file; this has been fixed.
+* Added a demo of the one-panel overhang lever + 6 button stick.

 # The Buildable Stick System

+Files for 3D printing and building an arcade stick enclosure.
 
 Have you ever wanted to conjure your own arcade stick out of the ether (well, plastic), or to prototype a new layout or
 design before sending it to a custom builder? Do you just love having your space filled with arcade stick enclosures,
 because you keep making different variants, colorways, and so on? Or do you simply want a good stick on the cheap, and
 know someone or a library with a 3D printer? The Buildable Stick System may be the project for you!

 # The Buildable Stick System
 
-Files for 3D printing an arcade stick.
+Files for 3D printing an arcade stick. See `README.md` for the core documentation, this file is specific to distributed
+objects.
 
-## Objects
+## Attribution
 
-The following notes document the objects in the Buildable Stick System and how you can use them:
-
-* `frames/`
-    * `complete/` --- these are the four walls of the frame as one piece, in a couple variations for combining into
-      larger arcade sticks. They are simple to assemble, but you have fewer modularity/customization options, and they
-      are harder to print because the physics of the material cooling will probably pull the corners up. They also need
-      supports, since the top and bottom of the frame both have trays for panels to go into. Use at your own risk.
-    * `pieces/`
-        * `box/` --- these are the same four walls (generally speaking) as in the complete frames above, broken out into
-          modular pieces to print separately. Because they are separate pieces, you can mix and match colors, and you
-          can lay them all face down on the print surface for better adhesion and surface patterns. There are also
-          variants here, the "windowed" pieces, for doing two-tone variants and that kind of thing.
-        * `extended/` --- the frame walls are pulled out to create MCZ TE-style extended sides. Rather than getting a
-          box look, you get a longer slab with nice bevels. These look nice, but slightly fiddily to print (and of
-          course need more material) --- watch your surface adhesion.
-        * `interconnect` --- complete frames are bolted to one another, but for frame pieces, there is an interconnect
-          that stands in for the joined inner wall. You need this if you are combining multiple sets of walls, e.g. for
-          a two-panel-long stick.
-* `panels/`
-    * `inset/` --- various panels, all of the same size, that fit into and flush with the frame, making the arcade stick
-      top or bottom. These work equally well with box or extended frames, and aside from using up a bit of the space
-      inside the frame, come with no downsides --- they print easily and are a pretty simple shape to tweak and remix.
-    * `overhang/` --- overhang panels have their plane extending over the edge of the frame, creating a bit of a
-      sandwich look. This is mostly an aesthetic choice, but they sit higher in the frame as well, the main panel being
-      over/under the frame rather than within it. This extra space is useful for taller levers. The only downside to
-      these is that they aren't as reusable as the inset panels, since the inset panels can go anywhere, but the
-      overhang panels must be designed to not overlap with other overhang panels, so you might have to make more custom
-      variants depending on where you put things.
-* `misc/`
-    * Pieces that I haven't organized better (yet) --- there are decorative plates for top buttons and similar to give
-      more color variance and some layers to the arcade stick, some very simple dustwashers, plates that fit rocker
-      switches and the like in Neutrik D or 20mm holes, and a lever mount spacer for getting your lever shaft at the
-      desired height. You don't *need* any of these, but you'll probably use a few.
-* `extras/`
-    * Various experiments and things not directly related to making an arcade stick. At time of writing, there's a
-      couple pieces for a little stand for the stick, solely for vanity purposes.

 # Assembly and Tips
 
-Just some miscellaneous notes for any dear reader, or more likely, my own forgetful self.
+These are the parts you need and instructions for creating a simple two panel arcade stick. The end product is a
+rectangular prism roughly 18" long, with ample space for back buttons and enough top panel space for almost any layout
+you can imagine. There are more pieces and designs to experiment with, but this will get you an awesome "standard"
+build.
+
+## Parts for a Basic Enclosure
+
+The pieces you need to print (all colors to your taste):
+
+* **The base frame:** `frame/pieces/front-or-back.stl` x2 + `frame/pieces/front-or-back-aux-and-neutrik.stl` x2 +
+  `frame/pieces/interconnect.stl`. This creates a large "H" with six 24mm button holes and two Neutrik D holes on the
+  back, which can mount USB connectors or rocker switches, or be covered if not used. All four of the front or back
+  pieces connect to the interconnect piece, which creates one frame out of the individual pieces, and also adds some
+  support to the center of the enclosure. The interconnect has a large hole that can either make wire routing easier, or
+  leave space in the center for button layouts that span it.
+* **The frame sides:** `frame/pieces/side.stl` x2. These cap the "H", completing the overall frame.
+* **The top:** `panels/inset/[LAYOUTS].stl`. These panels go on the top of the frame and are where you mount all of your
+  main buttons and levers and whatnot. There are a couple layouts whose panels are meant to be paired (e.g.
+  `shiokenstar-left-panel.stl` and `shiokenstar-right-panel.stl`), but usually you simply pick a left panel (e.g.
+  `lever-panel-with-mount.stl`) and right panel (e.g. `sega-2p-panel.stl`) based on what you want. Note that one of your
+  choices should be "with mount", which is where the usually-sized PCB will screw into inside the box.
+* **The bottom:** `panels/inset/panel.stl` x2. Other than being the color of your choice, these just close the box.
+  You could put foam pads or something on these if you wanted.
+
+The above gets you the basics. Some common things you may also want:
+
+* **Mounting Neutrik connectors:** Neutrik D connectors can mount flush to the inside of the frame, but you can choose
+  to have a little decorative plate (`misc/neutrik-d-plate.stl` for added depth or color choices on the outside of the
+  frame, if you'd like.
+* **Mounting a 24mm switch:** a rocker switch can also be mounted in the Neutrik D connector, but it needs to be placed
+  into a `misc/neutrik-d-plate-24mm-hole.stl` plate, and the plate mounted to the frame.
+* **Flair for the auxillary buttons:** the three buttons in a row on the back of the frame can also get some style, just
+  place a `misc/decorative-plate-aux-control-three-button-cluster.stl` between the buttons and the frame. This only
+  works for screw-in buttons.
+* **Flair for the top buttons:** same as above, a decorative plate for top panel layouts --- e.g.
+  `misc/decorative-plate-sega-2p.stl` --- can be sandwiched between the buttons and panel to add some style. This also
+  only tends to work on screw-in buttons.
+* **Dustwashers/flair:** same deal, if you want to print one, use e.g. `misc/dustwasher-jlf.stl`.
 
 ## Putting a BSS Stick Together
 
 Assembly of a stick is pretty straightforward, but there are some choices that can make it easier or harder. The
-following is the most consistent way I've found to put one together. This is assuming a v4.2 or beyond stick, with two
-panels to make a long standard stick, and the frame made of pieces.

 In the end, this should be extremely sturdy. None of the frame or panels should be loose at all, and you should be able
 to move, flip, gently toss, etc. the stick without anything moving or feeling loose.

-## Removing Inset Panels
-
-As of v4.1 (or in v3), the top and bottom inset panels both insert into the frame, inside the frame "lip", meaning that
-when everything is put together, they create a flush surface (more or less). This can make them hard to get out, as you
-can't grab anything to get any leverage, and especially with v4.1, the plastic posts to aid the friction fit make it
-even harder to muscle out --- in fact, even if you could get an edge and start yanking, you'd probably just break some
-of the plastic.
-
-You can instead use the reverse side and the hex standoffs to push a panel out, as so:
-
-1. Loosen, or completely remove, the hex bolts for the panel you would like to remove.
-2. Flip the stick over, and remove the hex bolts on the opposite side.
-3. Screw in longer bolts, or anything else that'll fit into the hole without going flush against the panel.
-4. Push the long bolts in, thus pushing the standoffs, thus pushing the desired panel out from within.
-5. You may have to even get a mallet and tap on a bolt, occasionally, as everything can be *pretty* tight.

+My preferred settings are 3 wall loops with 25% gyroid sparse infill. This gives the models a bit more weight and
 strength against bowing forces, but something more default, like 2 wall loops, 15% grid sparse infill, is fine and does
 not lead to a weak enclosure.
 
+### Supports and Positioning
+
+All of the parts are designed to be printed outside-face-down. The bevels are at an angle (45 degrees) that should print
+fine with no supports. Make sure everything is aligned properly on your plate so that the flat face you will look at the
+most is on the bottom.
+
+The only exception to this is the interconnect piece(s), which are not visible and need a support to print. Maybe one
+day I'll rejigger these.

 ### Working With Flatness
 
 A lot of the pieces are long and flat, so I recommend really dialing in your printer settings. The frame pieces make

-* **Top panels:** using a non-uniform pattern reduces if not eliminates the problem of the surface catching the light,

-* **Circle-centric decorative plates:** don't use complex patterns like Archimedean chords on decorative plates, as they

+* **Top panels:** using a non-uniform pattern reduces if not eliminates the problem of the surface catching the light,
+  but for some patterns, it may come at the expense of time.
+    * **Avoid:** monotonic.
+    * **Good for the time:** Archimedean chords create the look of a circular ripple radiating out the center, and
+      depending on the material, you may not even notice it much, so it's a pretty good look/speed balance.
+    * **Great if you can wait:** hilbert curve leaves no discernable pattern on most materials, but some high gloss,
+      high contrast materials may show the winding pattern at some angles --- consider Archimedean chords for these.
+* **Circle-centric decorative plates:** simple ones could be fine in whatever, but the ones for action buttons end up
+  having lots of weird interaction points.
+    * **Avoid:** none; monotonic doesn't look *good*, but the plates don't have enough surface area for the pattern to
+      stand out too much.
+    * **Decent:** concentric is generally good, but you can get some pitting when the pattern radiating away from
+      buttons collides with other patterns, because none of the geometry lines up well.
+    * **Great:** Archimedean chords, just crank up the infill/wall overlap to avoid pits on the edges.
+* **Frame walls with Neutrik or aux button cutouts:** a reduced but similar problem with the action button decorative
+  plates, the circles near each other create weird interactions with the walls.
+    * **Avoid:** concentric, again, has problems with pitting where geometries clash.
+    * **Decent:** monotonic is pretty decent here, and you probably won't look at the sides too much, so maybe it
+      doesn't bother you.
+    * **Great:** Archimedean chords again, with the same infill/wall overlap as decorative plates.
+* **Flush frame walls:** you can pretty much do whatever you like here.
+    * **Great:** concentric produces an interesting pattern and you won't have collision problems in a rectangle.
+    * **Essentially great:** Archimedean chords yet again, you may just not like the pattern as much as the end result
+      of concentric.
+
+The Archimedean chord pattern is a good default and prints awesome parts, with the only exception being the top panels,
+which benefit from using a Hilbert curve initial layer pattern instead, though you may be happy enough with Archimedean

+# BSS Arcade Edition
+
+Pieces for mounting to a Qanba 2009 in order to create the Buildable Stick System - Arcade Edition.
+
+## Pieces
+
+* 4 `interconnect-x` --- creating the internal support for joining two rows of panels
+* 6 `frames/pieces/interconnect` --- (core project) the standard piece for joining two+ columns of panels
+* 4 `extended-side-no-back` --- the extended side pieces, flush on the back to connect to each other
+* 4 `frames/pieces/extended/front-or-back` --- (core project) the front extended piece
+* 2 `extended-back` --- a small piece that fits into the Qanba 2009 "lip" for running cables
+* 1 `extended-back-left-mount`
+* 1 `extended-back-right-mount` --- extended back pieces that can be mounted to the Qanba 2009 base
+* 1 `panel-front-left-mount`
+* 1 `panel-front-right-mount` --- blank panels that can be mounted to the Qanba 2009 base
+* 6 `panels/inset/panel` --- the rest of the bottom panels
+* 4 `panels/inset/` panels of your choice for the front controls
+* 2 `panel-three-aux-buttons` --- for aux controls in the back row
+* 2 `panel-three-aux-buttons-and-rocker-hole` --- for aux controls and the wired rocker in the back row
+* 4 `decorative-plate-aux-control-tight-three-button-cluster` --- for decorating the aux control clusters
+* 4 `src/misc/` decorative plates of your choice for the front controls, and similar miscellany
+* 4 `mount-spacer` --- making a flush mount between the enclosure and the base
+
+## Hardware
+
+* 32 45mm M4 hex brass standoffs (or equivalent) for each panel/frame compartment
+* 64 8-12mm M4 countersunk hex bolts for attaching panels to the compartments
+* 4 8-12mm M3 hex bolts and 4 M3 flange nuts for attaching rocker switches to the back panels
+* 4 40mm M6 bolts for connecting the enclosure to the base
+* 4 M6 flange nuts
+
+## Components
+
+* 2 controller boards, e.g. the RP2040 Advanced Breakout Board
+* buttons and/or levers as desired
+* necessary wiring
+
+For the rest of the build (e.g. mounting a level to a panel), see the core README.
