5" LCD Pi Box / Case by Athruz

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

6-21-17- Added the new Pi stand I use; this one clamps around the entire body and front cover. Its a tight fit but works and holds well.
6-9-17 Added a stand - Left and Right High Res STL's (print laying flat obviously)
Printed and revised 5/28/17: removed the fillet on the inside for tolerances, fixed one vent that was jacked up somehow- not sure what happen...
Added 5/27/17: Added a recess for the ribbon cable, the lid is directional so make sure to line up the slot and wider section on the proper side of the screen. Also adjusted the screen opening and thickness for a tight press fit to the screen.
I "re-drew" this in Fusion 360 and added a different top cover that will lap press fit over the body. The one I printed the top would not clamp on so I decided to spend a little time and draw one out so i could customize it to fit. I have not printed this out yet so if you do let me know if any adjustment is needed. From what I can see it should work as planned.
It's hard to find a good printable 5" LCD case- thanks to "lowboydrvr" for the inspiration and overall design.
I used this screen and Pi:
