Here you’ll find the case I designed for my Raspberry Pi 3. I use it as a media center (Kodi), and wanted some esthetic case with a good cooling system. I like the Mac Pro design and thought it would be nice to have such case for the Raspberry Pi. Here is my version.
There is a 5V Noctua fan NF A4X10 on the bottom of the case for silent and efficient cooling. It is screewed on the fixing plate using 4x20mm screws and correponding bolts.
The uploaded part are from the version 4.0. The pictures I took are older (version 3.0). There are slight improvements on this last version, like a better cable fixation system, or a system to lock the Raspberry Pi support in place when moving the case.
Fill free to send me a message if you want some more details or the STEP files for modifications. 🙂
Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
