Ender 3 Side-Mounted Pi Case
Description
<b>Inspiration</b> I wanted to be able to mount a Raspberry Pi (3 B+) directly underneath the area occupied by [Codemonkey1973's Pi Camera Mount](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3294512) in order to use a cable chain without weird bends or twists outside a case. Additionally, I wanted to fasten [a ribbon chain cable](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3310252) to the case with the least number of bends/twists possible. As for cases, I tried out [J741's mounting scheme](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3437219) and while it worked, it would be a difficult to remove from the printer without removing the pi and the lid wouldn't stay on. [Keleo's case](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3177391) had a great mounting method but the case itself didn't fit the pi very well and I wanted the longer side of the case to point up. Each idea had a prominent feature that I wish was all included in one case. Also designed to work with [my pi camera mount](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3719157) remix. ------ <b>Hardware</b> <u>4 M2.5 x 12mm bolts</u> [I used these from Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07P1QNW8K) M2.5 x 10mm bolts would probably also work. <u>3 M4 x 8mm bolts</u> [I used these from Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07P41JDZR) <u> 3 M4 T-Slot (Hammer) Nuts</u> [I used these from Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0765Q7VFL) ------ <b> Version 1 </b> Link_Mod allows the link to rotate flush with the side of the lid - different from original links. * PiCase_Lid - 20% infill (Print with supports for cable clip) * PiCase_Base - 20% infill (Print with supports) * Link_Mod - 100% infill <b> Version 2 </b> Modified the lid to avoid printing supports for it. PiCase_Lid_Adapter should slide into the hole in the lid. Link_Mod allows the link to rotate flush with the side of the lid - different from original links. * PiCase_Lid_v2 - 20% infill * PiCase_Lid_Adapter - 100% infill * PiCase_Base - 20% infill (Print with supports) * Link_Mod - 100% infill <b> Version 3 </b> Modified both the lid and case to support a vertical orientation. PiCase_Lid_Adapter should slide into the hole in the lid. Link_Mod allows the link to rotate flush with the side of the lid - different from original links. * PiCase_Lid_v3 - 20% infill * PiCase_Lid_Adapter - 100% infill * PiCase_Base_Alt - 20% infill (Print with supports) * Link_Mod - 100% infill
