Description

PDF

Designed for Prusa MINI/MINI+

Main features

  • Easy to attach and detach from 30x30 aluminum extrusion of the MINI's z axis, no screws are necessary!
  • Easy access to the Pi's SD card, no more disassembly required!
  • In case you are also using a PiCam module, a dedicated version featuring a hole for the flat cable is provided.
  • The Pi case is divided in two halfs to insert the Pi easily and match perfectly  with each other: attached via zero-gap Snap-fit joints.

If you like this design, please consider buying me a coffee to support me in the creation of many other useful designs as a sign of gratitude for the huge amount of time and effort. Thank you very much and happy printing!

Updates

13/02/2022: Redisegned T-Slot-Clip so that the PTFE tube does not interfere with the cables on the side of the Raspberry Pi (see picture below).

Printing

  • Layer height: 0.2 mm;
  • Material: PETG (recommended), PLA;
  • Supports: Only for the MicroSD-cover overhangs;
  • Orientation: the models are already in the proper orientation.
In the Lower-case there's a 0.2 mm thick bridge to prevent the corners of SD card slot from falling making too difficult the insertion of the MicroSD-cover (see picture below). Once print finishes, just cut it out as if it were a support.

 

Assembly

  1. Attach the T-Slot-clip to the alluminum extrusion;
  2. Insert the Pi into the Lower-case and secure it with four M2.5x4 mm screws;
  3. Slide the Upper-case into the T-slot-clip;                                              
  4. Take the Lower-case with your Pi attached and join it to the Upper-case by simply pressing them together;                                    
  5. Insert the MicroSD-cover into it's slot in the Lower-case;
  6. Insert the Hexagon or Hexagon-hole into their slots on the Lower-case in wichever pattern you like (you might need to glue them to the Lower-case depending on your printer accuracy);                                               
  7. Now you're good to go ;-)                                           

If you are looking for a universal RaspberryPi4/Octoprint case I suggest you to give a look  at this design too: Raspberry Pi 4B/Octoprint Honeycomb case da JayCee09 | Scarica il modello STL gratuito | PrusaPrinters

Pro tips

  • PETG can cause a little bit of strings, to remove them you may just use a wind-proof lighter and they will disappear magically ;-)
