Printed Raspberry Pi Cases

[claudio donndelinger]

o/

I'm offering up some 3D printed Raspberry Pi cases for a $5 donation to our laser cutter fund. I can currently print them in translucent blue PLA. I'm going to do this until I run out of plastic or my printer catches fire. If anyone else would like to match me and print some cases for others in other colors/materials to contribute towards the laser cutter fund please feel free to do so.

I've been getting by with a papercraft one printed on a slice of manilla folder... lol.  I totally want in on this.  Where do I send the $5... the donation page on the site via Paypal, or another method?  Thanks!  --Greg

[Ben Eishen]

I have trans green, yellow, red, and white pla to donate to the cause.

[claudio donndelinger]

You can use the donate link, or cash at any meeting. I'll have some transparent blue cases available at the meeting on Friday to give to those already paid/spoken for. If you'd like one in any of the colors that Ben was kind enough to offer up(Thanks!)- I may or may not be able to have them ready by this meeting. I'll have them asap.

Sound good?

For those planning wall mount/tv setups, you may want to consider the linked one instead.

Great!

If you need the VESA mount option just let me know.

So far:

Greg:(1) trans.blue
Brandon:(1) red

I'll match you - I will print either the std case, or the VESA mount (dealer's choice).  I have Translucent Red, Green and Purple, and Natural in PLA. Or natural or black in ABS.

[Joe Ferguson]

I'll take 2 standard translucent blue.

[Daniel Soskel]

I don't know the difference between the PLA and ABS.  I'm also curious to know what the translucent red would look like, but I may end up going for black instead.  Either way I'm interested in one.

[erik]

Count me in for a blue one as well.

PLA is a corn-based plastic, it is more rigid than ABS, but not as heat resistant.  ABS is a synthetic/oil based product.

I attached a pic of a part of a tablet stand in trans red.

I'm not a member, but I would like a blue or black one, whatever is left. Would it be okay to pay at a code monkey meeting?

We're not biased towards non members participating in these sorts of things.  The more the merrier sort of thing.

However, if you feel that you suffer from the affliction known as NON-MEMBER-ITIS, we have the cure for you.

If you were to rectify your non-member situation I could be persuaded to provide you with a couple different models of pi cases...

As a new member I can verify the cure works and is a worthwhile investment.

I have the first 5 translucent blue cases printed, I'm looking to have the rest of the trans blue cases printed tomorrow.

[Daniel Soskel]

Not so crazy about that bright red.  I think I'll go with black.  Just to be different.  I'll drop by before the meeting Friday.  Can't stay too long, have to be back home by 7:45.  

[Cliff Gurlen]

Here's a pic of a red pi case

[Daniel Soskel]

I give up.  I'm horrible and indecisive and I think I like the translucent look much better.  Is it too late to change my mind to go with a blue like everyone else? 

[Danny Chamberlin]

Easy answer is to buy one of each and then change as your mood changes, right?
Danny

[John Wood]

If only there was some heat sensitive color changing injectable plastic... if only...

[claudio donndelinger]

It's going to be a bit tight. I don't think I'll have enough translucent blue to accommodate that. I may be one blue case short from being able to offer people a choice on blue or the other color. I'll know more in a few hours.  I should be able to have the cases for those that just wanted the transparent blue case if the people that had color options take the other colors.

I'll take any color, I don't have a preference

It was good to see everyone when I stopped by last night to pick mine up, even if it was only for a few minutes.  I noticed that the ethernet side of my black case doesn't seem to close completely.  It appears the bit that extends down to the LEDs is a hair too long.  I'm goig to try filing it down a little to see if I can get it to close.  FYI for anyone that picked up that model (or maybe mine's just derpy :P)

[Danny Chamberlin]

Heh, glad I wasn't the only fly-by-nighter last night :). And yes, it was awesome to see the room packed...I told Kim "2/3rds of these cars in the parking lot are Makers!" :)
