6" Rack, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B

thingiverse

This is a SixInch 2U rack module designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. It's fully compatible with the SixInch Rack enclosure, available at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1936196. Similar designs include http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1957436, http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1905998, and http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1840021. The module's code is now available on GitHub at https://github.com/KronBjorn/SixInchRack. The design includes holes in the rear for cables to USB Power, HDMI, and Sound, allowing all cables to exit from one side of the cabinet. This innovative approach addresses a common issue with the Raspberry Pi's layout, which can make it appear compact at first glance but ends up having a large footprint when connected. When setting up video output, you may need a 90-degree HDMI adapter if required. For LED illumination, insert a 14mm long piece of clear 3mm filament. While shining into the end is ideal, simply resting them on top works well too. Just be cautious with cyanoacrylate adhesive as it can haze up the filament - a lesson learned from personal experience.
