I Design Custom Sliding Cases for Raspberry Pi 3 - Check Out My Website! Visit my website at http://sallyengineering.weebly.com/ to see more of my projects. Here's how I designed this custom sliding case using Fusion 360: Designing the Case ----------------- First, I opened up Fusion 360 and started a new design from scratch. I chose the "Part" workspace and set the unit system to inches. Next, I created a new sketch on the XZ plane by clicking the "Sketch" tab in the top toolbar. I drew a rectangle with the dimensions 4.33 x 2.63 inches to serve as the base of the case. Designing the Sliding Mechanism ----------------------------- To create the sliding mechanism, I drew another sketch on the XY plane and created a new part by extruding the sketch up to 0.375 inches. This will be the main body of the case. I then added two more parts: one for the sliding panel and another for the hinge. The sliding panel is a simple rectangle with a thickness of 0.125 inches, while the hinge is a small L-shaped piece that connects the sliding panel to the main body. Assemblying the Case ------------------- To assemble the case, I created an assembly by combining all three parts: the base, the main body, and the sliding panel. I then added some screws to hold everything together. Final Touches -------------- After assembling the case, I added some final touches such as a Raspberry Pi 3 logo on the front and some ventilation holes for airflow. And that's it! My custom sliding case for Raspberry Pi 3 is complete. Check out my website at http://sallyengineering.weebly.com/ to see more of my projects and designs.
