Han Solo in Carbonite - Raspberry Pi 2/B+ Case

pinshape

Frozen in Carbonite by Darth Vader, Han Solo has been transformed into a budget microcomputer! My love of Star Wars inspired me to merge two outstanding models into this fantastic Raspberry Pi 2/B+ case. Many thanks to Geoffro & aurelius for creating the original designs. This design works perfectly, but it does have limited ventilation in this version. I'll soon release an updated version with improved airflow. To see how I created this project, check out my time-lapse video that includes my printing technique: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwiPxT9yCPo Enjoy your new Raspberry Pi case! Bleep bloop, Rigelbot Print Settings: Rafts: Not required Supports: Yes Resolution: Split: 0.200 for the case, 0.050 for Han Solo Infill: 30% Fast-Honeycomb Notes: Printer: Makergear M2 Slicer: Simplify3D Filament: Hatchbox Silver PLA 1.75mm Settings: Hotend: 210°C Heated Bed: 70°C Split: 200 microns for the case, 50 microns for Han Solo Adhesion: Gluestick on glass + thin layer of hairspray Technique: At the 30-second mark (in the video), I instructed the printer to pause with this command: G28 X0; home x-axis M0; pause Then I flipped the upper section onto the lower section, allowing the extruder to print Han Solo without supports. This saved about an hour of printing and nearly half the material weight.
