Raspberry Pi Case (RasPi)
Description
Some user decided to put this case up for sale and did not pay any attention to the licensing of this item. I am removing the stls.
I got my Raspberry Pi last week and was instantly worried about its life on my desk. Screws, paperclips, washers all sorts of printer parts to short out my new toy! You can print out just the bottom and leave the top exposed for hacking or print out both halves and have a fully enclosed and safe Raspberry Pi!
UPDATE 9/20/2012
thingiverse.com/thing:30572
A new thing has been released to replace this one. There have been many complaints about the rca port being off by just a hair so this has been resolved in the new parametric model not made in Sketchup like this one was.
Instructions
For a fully enclosed case print RasPiCase-Bottom.stl AND RasPiCase-Top.stl. Fit the RasPi in the case SD Card slot first and fit lid on top.
For larger bots you can print RasPiCase.stl which contains both the top and the bottom of the case in 1 plate.
I've been printing this with a .35 nozzle at .2 layer height with 2 perims and .2 fill. Doesn't even really seem to need a heat bed to print.
**UPDATE**
I've added a vented top to the case for those concerned with cooling issues.

Very nice cases for the raspberry Pi. We printed 3 for our Pi 's and they fitted perfectly. Thanks!
I'm releasing the fixed copy of the stl's today that should fix this issue. Check back later today!
Yes, exact same alignment issues on mine as well. Hole for RCA is too far right. Actually, its a good thing the plastic nub at the bottom of the USB prevents the board from going down any further into the case - if it did, the ethernet lock-tab would not have room.
I printed it.... Twice. It seems my first 'pi fits perfectly, the second one doesn't! I'll double check tonight, but I thought the video connector was smack in the middle of the hole....
Printed the bottom part a few minutes ago in abs, unfortunately my raspberry pi seems to have slightly different measurements. The RCA-jack (tv-out connector) do not line up with the case and the usb connector have a ~1mm plastic thingy underneath which prevents it from sliding all the way down in the case. All other parts fits and aligns perfectly.
Are the stl files the source files or do you have scad files?
Thanks for a great case, with some minor adjustments it will be perfect.

If you tried printing this using PLA instead of ABS, would the raspberry pi melt the case?
I only print with PLA and have not had any of the cases melt.
propably not because the meltpoint of PLA is at ~150°C and the rPI wont get that hot.
