RPi SNAP-FIT CASE

thingiverse

#HEY YOU GUYYYYSSSS# **YET ANOTHER RPI AND MCU CASE.** I GOT BORED WANTING SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO BE DESIGNED TO RELOCATE MY MAIN BOARD (MCU) AND RPi, AS I HAVE MY MACHINE IN AN ENCLOSURE WHICH WILL BE HEATED AT A LATER POINT. FILES AVAILABLE IN STEP AND STL. F3D ON REQUEST (BUT IF YOU HAVE THE STEP FILES THERE IS NO NEED FOR F3D FILES, JUST SAYING VERY MINIMAL SUPPORTS NEEDED. SHOULD ONLY BE NEEDED ON THE RPi BOTTOM AS THERE IS A 90 DEGREE OVERHANG ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RPi CASE BOTTOM. I SUGGEST USING SUPPORT ENFORCERS TO REDUCE THE SUPPORT WHERE **NOT NEEDED** STOCK MOUNTING SCREWS FROM ORIGINAL MCU STORAGE BAY (M3x5 SCREW/BOLT) HEAD TYPE DOES NOT MATTER #BE SURE TO READ THE FOLLOWING# IF YOU PLAN ON MATING THE TWO CASES TOGETHER (WITH THE BUILT IN ATTACHING SECTION)... YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO POWER THE RPi VIA GPIO PINS WITH 5vDC AND THIS IS DONE WITH A BUCK CONVERTOR (STEPDOWN) TO REDUCE FEED IN VOLTAGE TO THE RPi TO 5vDC. ***TONS OF GUIDES ONLINE THAT WILL SHOW HOW THIS IS DONE.***
