Raspberry Pi 4 case (beta)

thingiverse

**EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!** Use filament that can withstand extremely high temperatures, or the bottom part may warp under the intense heat from the Raspberry Pi, making it extremely difficult to remove the RPi from the bottom part without causing damage! If this happens to you, don't apply excessive pressure - instead, carefully and slowly try to remove the RPi. Inspect the bottom part for any signs of warping or bending. If you have concerns about this issue, simply use pliers to remove the pins on the bottom part or print a version without pins altogether (coming soon!). Please note that I will not be held responsible for any damage caused by excessive heat or pressure, nor any other type of damage. This case is still in its beta phase, as evident from the orange banner at the top. Be sure to regularly check this site for any future updates and changes! We've just reached an impressive milestone - 600 views! I'd like to extend my gratitude to everyone who has downloaded our design 150 times so far. I want to express my heartfelt thanks to all of you for your support, especially with 100 downloads and almost 400 views! This is the most popular item on my Thingiverse account to date. Your appreciation means a lot to me! As mentioned yesterday, I've added three more versions of the top part, making this case compatible with GPIO pins, PoE pins, DSI connectors, and camera connectors. The bottom part without holes has also been uploaded, eliminating the need to struggle with removing supports. Please note that these new versions were not printed by me, so there are no images available. The clarifications for the .STL files have been updated as well. **EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!** Use filament that can withstand extremely high temperatures, or the bottom part may warp under the intense heat from the Raspberry Pi, making it extremely difficult to remove the RPi from the bottom part without causing damage!

If you have concerns about this issue, simply use pliers to remove the pins on the bottom part or print a version without pins altogether (coming soon!). I recently purchased the new Raspberry Pi 4, and I wanted to create my own custom case using Blender. The design features holes in the top part where hot components reside, such as USB and Ethernet ports, as well as holes below the CPU on the bottom part. This case boasts a slim profile for both the top and bottom parts, which should facilitate effective heat dissipation. **Please note that this case is not designed to be self-supporting!** I intentionally created it this way since the RPi will often stay on my desk at all times. Be aware that when trying to flip the case 180 degrees, the top part may detach. Additionally, this case is not intended to withstand high temperatures as it may warp. Keep in mind that I will not be responsible for any damage caused by excessive heat or pressure, nor any other type of damage. You can hold the two parts together using rubber bands or scotch tape until you find a more suitable solution. If you have a creative way to secure them, please let me know! If you enjoy my design, consider showing your appreciation by tipping me! Your support will help me continue creating and sharing innovative projects like this one.
