A 3D printed case for the ROCK64 board

By JC on Tuesday 23 January 2018, 18:44

I recently bought a ROCK64 board because I wanted to upgrade my home made NAS (I just got the fiber at home, hence the upgrade).

The board is really nice, especially the 1Gbps Ethernet and USB3 ports. However, it needed a casing to be perfect, so, using Blender, I modified a nice Raspberry Pi 3B case made by jayftee to match the ROCK64 board.

The main changes are:

  • IR sensor and DC IN added
  • Slight changes for the audio jack and Ethernet port
  • Missing USB port removed
  • Size of the casing increased a little bit

Feel free to check it out in my Thingiverse account !

See you soon !

I easily found some nice fan mounts on Thingiverse, but I had some difficulties to find the fan connector of my Sanguinololu 1.3b. And for good reasons, since there is none. Well, not dedicated to a fan at least.
