The PCDuino3 Nano and Nano Lite are apparently hard to find stuff for (as well as support!). I could not find a case for the thing nor one that fit my needs of also housing a 2.5" SATA hard drive, which was the reason I bought it. So I made one!
I took the base from ralfselfjord's PCDuino3 Nano Shield and smashed it together with a hard drive enclosure from thankyoucaptainobvious. Then after browsing Thingiverse for hours for inspiration I modeled a lid. I modeled it to mimick the media center look, or a Mac Mini lol.
I don't really have a need/use for the GPIOs on the board so they are not accessible from the current version of the case. I have the Nano Lite which does NOT have an IR on the board, so this current version also does NOT have accessibility for this. I left an opening for an audio cable if used as well as one for the ethernet/usb ports. All the other ports have cutouts in the lid. The SD card is easily accessible as well.
FYI it is a fairly large print: 140.7mm x 186mm x 42mm.9
The screw holes are designed for M3 screws, they should be a tight fit. The hard drive screws in, the PCDuino is a friction fit.
