Rasberry Pi 3 case by YeetMan420

Last crawled date: 3 years, 4 months ago

This is a case for the Rasberry Pi 3 completely self-designed using tinkercad. This build requires you to purchase a mini fan kit off of amazon. I will put a link down below. You must first print the case (obviously), and then you need to mount the fan on the inside of the case. You will use all of the screws that are included in the kit even though you will only use one of the fans. 4 of the screws will be used to mount the fan to the top of the case while the other 4 will be used to mount the top to the bottom of the case. You MUST plug in the fan to the pins on the circuit board before you screw the case shut (there is a picture of how to do this on the amazon page). When you screw the top down, remember to install the nuts on the inside brackets where there are holes for them. I would recommend gluing them in place before you screw it in. You might also have to bend or cut off the overhang around the USB ports or sand them down to fit. You might have to do the same with the longer pins at the bottom of the board. I would also recommend putting your SD card in through the slot post-installation of your Raspberry Pi. Once you are done, Enjoy!
