Raspberry Pi 3B+ Case for 20mm Noctua Fan #3DPrinting #3DThursday

Featured preview 1

Jingleboy shared this project on Thingiverse!

This is a remix of Vince_Print’s thing “Raspberry Pi 3B/B+ Case with Noctua Fan”. As the title implies, it is a case for the Raspiberry Pi 3B+ intended to house a Noctua NF A4x20 5V Fan.

I recently set up OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ and wanted to print a case that would also allow fan cooling. I stumbled upon Vince_Print’s case and really liked the design, though was put off by the “DIFFICULT TO PRINT” aspect. As a result, I decided to remix the case so less supports were required. This meant losing some of the ‘flavour’ details (like the Raspberry Pi logo) in favour of print-ease, but it was trade-off I was happy to make.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!

The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!
