Raspberry Pi 7" touch screen enclosure (case)

thingiverse

3d .stl files for creating an enclosure for the official 7" touch screen for the Raspberry Pi are available. Separate files for enclosing the RasPi B module (or RasPi 2) are also attached with 4 slide-on interlocking clips for easy removal during development work. Sufficient space is provided for attaching an additional hat, such as the sense hat, and accessing the GPIO pins. Print Settings Printer: Flashforge Creator Pro Rafts: No Supports: No I used white 1.75mm ABS filament on a Flashforge Creator Pro printer using a 3mm glass bed. A thin film of ABS dissolved in acetone is applied to the base glass plate for good adhesion. Slicr is used for generating gcode. Bed temperature is initially set at 115 degrees for the first layer, then reduced to 110 degrees for subsequent layers. Extruder temperature is set at 235 degrees for the first layer, then 230 degrees for the rest. No support is required for the model. A 0.2mm layer height is used with 20% honeycomb infill and 3 solid top and bottom layers for horizontal shells, as well as 3 perimeters for vertical shells. The 4 interlocking clips require a fine flat needle file to clean the gap at 2.2mm. The interlock tabs need some strengthening to prevent shearing along the layer. This can be achieved by applying a thin layer of dissolved ABS in acetone or cyano-acrylate glue across the inner and outer surfaces. Wait until it is dry before assembly. How I Designed This The 3D model was designed using Solidworks software.
