Raspberry Pi B+ / 2 / 3 / 3B+ Case with cutouts for CAM/GPIO and optional camera mount

thingiverse

Hello all, this is another modified version of Walters's great Raspberry Pi 2/B+ case. I made some changes to fit better because the original design was a bit too tight. I removed the case with no problems, but I worried about breaking my Pi when removing it. In addition, there are cutouts for GPIO and the camera connector. There is also an optional ball joint with a camera housing giving you many possibilities for positioning. The camera mount is entirely optional and requires a M3x10 DIN 912 screw or similar to attach it to the case. You will have to drill a 2.5 mm hole in the case to secure the joint with the screw. There's also a small hole in the camera housing where you can drill a 6mm hole for perfect alignment on the ball joint. It's suggested that the legs of the camera housing be bent slightly for a good fit. The images attached show what happens when you print this model with a Reprap Neo using PLA, 0.2 mm layer height and 0.5 mm nozzle. I hope this turns out useful for some of you! Update: The pin for the camera was too big for a few people, so I added one that is smaller. Update 2: A model has been added with cutouts for DSI, Camera and GPIO (a standard 40 pin IDE connector fits), but please note, it may only work well if printing is done with supports enabled. Update 3: I've made a new version that fits the Raspberry Pi 3B+. Of course, this will still work with RPI 2 too. This one should be used from now on. Instructions: The case works without the camera mount. The camera mount needs finishing work: get a M3x10 DIN 912 screw drill a 2.5 mm hole in the pi case for the screw Drill two 6 mm holes in the camera housing legs to fit it properly on the ball joint (if they're too tight, you can drill bigger holes) drill one 3.5 mm hole in the ball joint and 6mm cutting on the head of the screw to avoid breaking it.
