Raspberry Pi single-board computers are great, but one thing they don’t come with is an enclosure. Sure, you could fasten one to the back of a TV or computer monitor by itself, but in order for it to live on it’s own in plain sight, you’ll need some sort of box to put it in. Naturally there are a ton of cases available, including quite a few on Tindie.
Acrylic Raspberry Pi 3 Enclosure
This Raspbery Pi 3 case surrounds your Pi in acrylic, and provides easy access to ports and the SD card reader. It also includes vents to keep things cool, and is available in several colors, including clear as shown here.
Classic Wooden Raspberry Pi Case
If you’d like a classic look for your Pi setup that evokes the feeling of an early-1900s radio, this wooden enclosure for the Pi 2/3 will do the trick! It’s cut out of a block of oak, and features a generous cooing grate, along with cutouts for access to connection ports.
DIN Rail Kit
While you wouldn’t call this an “enclosure,” if you need to use a Raspberry Pi in an industrial setting, being able to mount it to DIN rail is extremely helpful. This kit works on the Pi 2/3, along with the Pi Zero, allowing you to integrate the Pi into a controls cabinet without having to drill holes.
Anodized Aluminum Pi Enclosure
If you (correctly) think that anodized aluminum looks pretty awesome, then this case is worth a look. Granted, it costs more than your Pi computer itself, but it’s got all of the access slots you would expect, along with an aluminum reset button. Not only that, but the enclosure itself acts as a passive heat sync, helping your Pi run cool and silent!
NES-Inspired Case
Building a Pi-based retro computing system? Why not make it look the part with this 3D-printed enclosure made in the form of a small version of your favorite childhood gaming system. Cleverly, the “cartridge” door opens to reveal not a copy of Super Mario Bros, but the Ethernet and USB ports of the Pi inside. You can order it with a cooling fan included, or even a small LED to simulate the NES’ power indicator.
Press Fit Wooden Enclosure
This intersting Raspberry Pi case is made out of birch plywood, and is laser-cut in such a way that you can push it together without using any type of screws of fasteners.
Minimal Pi Zero Enclosure
This neat Pi Zero case features a pair of acrylic panels supported by standoffs. This allows .625″ above the Pi if you need space for connectors or other electronics. It’s shown in orange here, but can be ordered in a variety of colors, including clear.F
