2.5" Hard drive case (based on the PiBow by Pimoroni)
thingiverse
Laser-cut hard drive case for 2.5" 15mm laptop hard drives. Based on the fantastic PiBow (http://shop.pimoroni.com/collections/pibow) case for Raspberry Pi. If you like the case, please consider buying a PiBow. Instructions Assembly should be as simple as laser cutting the pieces out of a single piece of 3mm acrylic and assembling with 4 x 30mm nylon M3 nuts and bolts as described above. These seem to be readily available on eBay in suitably small quantities (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3mm-x-30-NYLON-PLASTIC-SCREW-M3-BOLT-NUT-WASHER-PACK-10-/250882040614). I am using a cheap USB cable from Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00C3CPK6W/). I am happy to add / provide additional photos showing the assembly in further details if people ask. The case will probably work fine with 9mm and and 12.5 mm disks if you simply omit some layers. You might need to cut space for the SATA connector out of the top and bottom pieces for the lower-profile drives.
