STL files, including speaker model. New youtube video showing improvements to the build (1/20/23) Designed over the course of DOScember 2022, this build went through a few design choice changes. (click on images for larger image.) Originally, was designed around a
Raspberry Pi 2B. Then, was redesigned after
discovering that the Dell WYSE 3040 thin client would fit inside the
design perfectly. The finished product has multiple
files, The original top case with separate 5.25 and 3.5 bays, which
the 3.5 bay is designed to hold an SD card slot. The power button is
8mm diameter, so you can use the model for an authentic button or an
8mm panel mount switch like I wound up doing. The alternative top
case has the 5.25 and 3.5 bays built in so you don't have to print
them separately. It also contains a 5mm hole for an LED on the left,
and a recessed 1cm x 1cm square for a tiny case badge. There are two
versions of the bottom case as well. One for a full size Raspberry
Pi, and one for the WYSE 3040 motherboard. The WYSE design has the
standard ports as well as a spot to put a USB to PS/2 adapter. In my current build. I removed the front USB 2.0 port, and added header pins. Then added some dupont connectors to the PS2 adapter, so I could disconnect if I need to remove the board. Here is what the build looks like
currently
