Baby Groot for Echo Dot / Amazon Alexa

thingiverse

I designed an enclosure for the second generation Echo Dot, inspired by the character Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy. To create this unique case, I expanded a template, modified the hole to fit the device perfectly, and added a socket for cable management. Initially, the cables did not fit snugly in the first prototype. To rectify this issue, I made adjustments and incorporated additional angles into the design for improved stability. The final dimensions of the Groot case are 187.45 x 158.11 x 220 mm (length x width x height). Printing the enclosure took two days using my Anet A8 3D printer, with a print speed of approximately 45mm/s and a total weight of around 450g of PLA filament used.
