Supercomputers are cool by their very nature, but no-one made them more awesome than Cray Supercomputer in the 1980s. Re-live those glory days of industrial design with this case for a Raspberry Pi Zero!
I made the case as small as possible while still fitting the Pi - it is 130mm wide, by 70mm deep, by 70mm tall (5" x 2.75" x 2.75").
Print one of each part, except for the parts which have 'x8' in the name - print 8 of each of those; and similarly two of each of the parts that have 'x2' in the name. Have a look at the photos for color ideas. But remember that Cray had various color schemes for their machines, so feel free to go a bit Cray-Cray when choosing colors.
We have a YouTube tutorial on how to build the case, including adding a disk-activity light mode to it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgDVQJ4_sjk
You will also need two 2.5mm x 10mm bolts/screws with buts to hold the Pi Zero in place.
If you don't have access to a printer, you can buy a kit of the printed parts and bolts/nuts from our store: http://store.rabbitengineering.com

If you want to fit a full sized Pi in this case (like the Pi 3), it will require quite a bit of rework. But feel free to give it a try.
