Raspberry Pi 4 case (beta)

thingiverse

**VERY IMPORTANT** *Use filament that can withstand high temperatures! The bottom part may bend under the heat from the RPi and this makes it very hard to remove the RPi from the bottom part! If this happened to you, DO NOT USE MUCH PRESSURE! Remove it slowly and check the bottom part. If you have any concerns about this issue, remove the pins on the bottom part with pliers or print the version without pins at all (will be uploaded tomorrow!) I will **not be liable** for any damages done to your equipment arising from too much heat or pressure or bending, nor if it's any other kind of damage, so use this case **at your own risk!*** This case is still in the beta stage as you can see from the orange banner on the top, so please keep visiting and checking this site often for any future changes! . . . . --**Edit 4th of August**-- We just passed 600 views! Thank you for 150 downloads! --**Edit 17th of July**-- Thank you so much for 100 downloads with almost 400 views! To this date this the most popular thing on my Thingiverse account! I really appreciate that! --**Edit 12th of July**-- As I mentioned yesterday, I added 3 more versions of the top part. Thanks to these new versions, the case is now compatible with the GPIO pins, as well as with the PoE pins and the DSI and camera connectors. I also uploaded the bottom part without holes so that you don't have to struggle with removing the supports anymore :D I didn't print these versions so I don't have any images to upload. The clarifications of the .STL files has been updated too. **VERY IMPORTANT** Use filament that can withstand high temperatures!

If you have any concerns about this issue, remove the pins on the bottom part with pliers or print the version without pins at all (will be uploaded in a moment!) I recently bought myself the new Raspberry Pi 4, and since I wanted to make my own case, I designed one with Blender. I also added holes into the top part where the parts get hot (like the USB and Ethernet ports, as well as on the CPU). It also has holes on the bottom part below the CPU. This case has a very thin bottom and top part, which should make it easier for the heat to dissipate. **This case is NOT intended to hold together on its own! I designed it this way since the RPi is (partly) a desktop computer in my case and it stays on my desk at all times. When you try to flip it 180°, the top part will most probably fall off so keep that in mind before printing! It's also NOT intended to withstand high temperatures because it may bend! As mentioned below, I will NOT be liable for any damages done to your equipment, whether because of heat or pressure and bending, nor if it's any other kind of damage ** The two parts can be held together with (for example) rubber bands or scotch tape, but when you find another way, feel free to tell me how you did it :D **Do you like my design? Then why not consider tipping me? It would support me and show me that you like what I made.**
