ePIc R2-Pi2 (raspberry pi 2 or 3 case )

thingiverse

Another Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 case for the collection. If you can't print yourself or don't want an epic logo on the side, you can order one here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/555544754 The insert is self-standing and can be used on its own without the cover. It has four CSINK holes in the base for mounting to a wall or other vertical surface. When installing a fan and fan cover, install them onto the cover before inserting the insert with the Pi. A stand is not required but allows more stability if the case is stood up on end. The tight fit also makes it possible to mount the stand to something, keeping the case cover in place. This case uses a 40mm x 40mm x 10mm fan - and still has enough room for a 1/2" tall heatsink on the main CPU of the Pi. You can go without a fan since there is a fan cover to cover the area for a fan. The following screws are required: 4-#5 or 6 x .5" long flat head screws (only required if using a fan guard) and 2-3mm x .375-.5" long screws to attach and align the Pi in the insert (not required). I have free models and paid models available. Free models are nice, but tips are greatly appreciated. A user contacted me on 11/5/17 and said they knocked off the wireless antenna on the Pi due to the insert channel not allowing enough room for it. I'm looking into this issue now and have removed the affected file for the time being. I've added more relief around the antenna portion of the Pi 3. All users should use the R2Pi2 insert (R1) to prevent any damage to their Pi. I didn't encounter this issue during prototyping, but it could happen. A user mentioned on 11/30/17 that the pins don't line up correctly when snapping the cover over the insert. I've added R2Pi2 - Insert R2, which is undersized by .030 to help with this issue. This revised insert looks like it will work well and open up more tolerance. I've updated the file on 5/14/19 to Rev 3, removing Rev 2. Rev 3 has more clearance from the insert to the cover, reducing binding issues.
