Cameron's Raspberry Pi 3 Case

thingiverse

This is my version of a case for the Raspberry Pi 3 that I designed to challenge myself and add extra features beyond what inspired me from a similar case on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:604915). I wanted a contoured design, friction fit with no fasteners or glue needed for assembly, access to all plugs, memory card, and GPIO interface. Features include two mounting flanges with slightly oversized holes for a #10 fastener, RPI logo air vent, and a world map on the underside because science and technology is for everyone. Print details are as follows: approximately 30g material and 2 hour print time. The case design is 2mm thick requiring minimal infill but you can print with no infill if you make your first 8 layers solid fill. You can also print this without supports if your machine can bridge over spans of an inch or so, otherwise use supports. Remember to union overlapping volumes when slicing and making gcode and adjust the fit by increasing or decreasing scale by 1-2% in the slicing software due to tight tolerances that may vary across different printer types, nozzle selection, etc. The case is designed to fit electronics snugly but this may require adjustments.
