Snap Circuit NodeMCU V3 Enclosure

thingiverse

I got tired of my ESP8266 getting kicked around. My workbench also has an aluminum plate mounted to it so you can imagine how hard it is to do electronics on top of that. So... I created an enclosure for it. My kids have the Snap Circuit Toys and so I designed this to use the Snap Circuit base board as my protoboard. It was modeled off of the Snap-Ino Arduino Module. This has a cable holder to relive stress on the board. It held the two cables I tested with but if it is in the way, just snap it off. You may need to adjust this design to accommodate other ESP8266 chips but hopefully all the bits are there and they just need to be moved around. Once it is printed, the ESP8266 can be dropped in. The posts can be deformed to make the mount permanent or leave it as is. It will wiggle a tiny bit but it can be removed easier in the event of failure.
