Raspberry Pi 4 B Low Profile Case (Zip Tie Mountable)

prusaprinters

<p>UPDATE: V2 Case Top has an extra 1mm clearance for the back side of the USB ports.</p> <p>This Raspberry Pi case is for the brand new model 4B. This case is low profile and also features multiple sets of holes on the bottom surface to allow Zip ties to be threaded through for easy mounting (I recommend putting the zip ties in before installing the Pi). Also, this case allows the Pi to be snapped in without the need for additional hardware. The opening for the GPIO pins will also accommodate a standard notched 40-pin ribbon cable connector. The square hole in the top of the case (above the Pi's CPU) is sized to allow a heat sink to protrude through the case. It's best to stick the heat sink to the CPU after assembly, through the hole in the lid, since the tolerances are tight.</p> <p>Here's a link to the heat sinks that I used on my Pi4B:</p> <p><a href="https://www.canakit.com/raspberry-pi-4-heat-sinks.html">https://www.canakit.com/raspberry-pi-4-heat-sinks.html</a></p> <p>The Adafruit 15✖️15✖️15mm heat sink will work as well, but sticks up pretty high out of the case.</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p><p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>i3 MK2S</p></div><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>.15mm</p> <p><p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20%</p></div><br/> <strong>Filament:</strong><br/> Matter Hackers Build Series PLA Purple <br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong> </p><div><p>I usually use PETG for cases and I think it makes for a more durable solution. In/on this case I opted for a solid color PLA to better show off the stencil cut print on the top of the case.</p><strong><em>YOU NEED TO ROTATE THE TOP 180 DEGREES ON THE Y AXIS IN YOUR SLICER</em></strong></div></p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3> <p><strong>About the design process...</strong></p> <p>I run Ubuntu Linux on all my home computers. This limits my choices for CAD software so I have taught myself how to use FreeCAD since there is a native Linux version that seems to be getting more stable as time goes by.</p> </p></p></p> Category: 3D Printing
