Description
This laser cut Raspberry Pi enclosure design features light pipes for the status LEDs and obscures the T-slots for a nice clean looking enclosure.
All off board connectors are accessable with the top off and you can use standard ribbon cable connectors through the case to hook up the expansion header as well. Spacing of the top layers have been adjusted so these should be compatible with pi plates when they become availiable with minimal additional hardware.
Black acrylic kits are available here:

And a limited number of translucent purple acrylic kits are available here:
nvy.gd/Lv2Ox9

Hi, the case looks nice and cool that you share your design.
Don't you think you could do away with the screws by making the parts fit tighter together?
I've done so with wood and it work fine, rock solid!

Hi! Can you please post the eps for the light pipes? I think you accidentally posted twice the 3mm eps

Will this work with 1/8" instead of 3mm? Or is that essentially the same...?
If you get 1/8" acrylic it'll probably be 3mm. If you do happen to get true 0.125" thick acrylic you may have to make the slots a little bit wider.
