I needed a extension cord cover for when I am camping and my camper 12 gauge electrical cord is not long enough to reach the electrical outlet. This will protect the connection to the extension cord from the elements, mainly rain.
I printed it in PETG to protect the cover from the heat and UV. It is possible to use PLA but I would coat the print in super glue (do it in a well ventilated area) let it dry and then coat it with a high heat spray paint. No guarantees on longevity but it has helped my outdoor PLA prints in the past.

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!
