TurboPi (Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 case)

thingiverse

Another Raspberry Pi case is just what you've been searching for! This super cool case snaps together easily, with mounting holes and mounts that make it simple to put everything in place using (4) 3mm x 8mm screws. Installation is straightforward - simply place the cover upside down as shown, then insert the IO section of the board first, making sure it's all the way forward. Double-check this by ensuring the IO pins line up with the pattern of slots. Once that side is in place, gently press down on the hdmi/power side of the board until it's level. Then, compress it into the cover - you should hear a small snap. The bottom also snaps into the 4 corners and along the notches. Adding some bump-ons to the bottom will help prevent sliding and improve airflow. Slots have been created for the IO port pins to stick out through the case, making it easy to access these ports if needed. Simply snip or file the dividers as required - they're there for support during printing anyway. If you don't plan on using the fins, you can feed the camera cable in through the slots. However, this is not guaranteed and may require removing the front fin to access the port. The fins are designed to be pressure fit, so if they're too loose or tight, simply adjust their thickness to suit your needs. They should stay in place once installed. A small droop was noticed in the main body where the fins go, but it's hard to see once they're installed. I'd love to see how you make this case! Update: After my 3rd print of this case, I experienced a little binding above the cable attachment area between the hdmi/audio cord. This will be updated soon, and I plan on relieving out the cover along the base for the IO plugs as well. This case has been updated and cleaned up. Print Settings: Printer: Monoprice Dual ext Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: .2 Infill: 20 Post-Printing: Might need to remove a few droops from the center recess.
