BeagleBone Black Wireless Enclosure

thingiverse

There just aren't enough things for the BeagleBone Black Wireless (BBBW) specifically. I built this enclosure fairly quickly to support my BeagleBone Black Wireless and two additional external antennas purchased on Amazon to increase range. This makes the device more reasonable for use around the office or in the home. There are two parts: A large taller enclosure I made this taller for a heat sync and/or an additional fan I may add. To off-set heat the enclosure is vented on the bottom and for fun venting on the sides with BBBW text. An antenna supporting lid I went through two iterations of the lid after support for the external antennas were too heavy and easily cracked the structure. The lid now includes support circles around the antenna rings and further includes struts to those supportive rings. The lid is light and strong.
