Just found this Etsy (which is a weird site in it self, basically it usually home made art works for sale)

Any way someone done a small A3000 like Rasberry Pi case for just £12.99

It's certainly cheap but it looks a bit naff. It would be nice if there was some indication that it would look decent if the customer took the time to hand finish it.

Interesting, C64DTV or maybe a Minimig could fit in there

I think it's awesome technology, if I ever buy an FPGA Classic then a 3D printed case would be the perfected home for it :)

Gee.. I wonder where this person got the idea from? I designed this almost 2 years ago. I suppose imitation is a sincere form of flattery?

I don't want it to sound like I'm upset... I'm not. The design is really Amiga so I can't take credit. I honestly hope it sells well. I should get a free one at least. ;)

The case for sale is let down by the low cost printer and material used to make it but it would easily cost 4x that if it were made with higher end equipment or hand finished and painted.

I want your case design for my Community Computer!

Another as cool idea I have seen:
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=68020

But perhaps I should just copy:

@Rob

What's for sale is not a design, it's a manufactured product. No matter what your design looks like, it's not gonna look good after being 3D printed

Using "voltage" instead of "potential", which leads to inventing new words like "amperage" instead of "current" (I, measured in A) or possible "charge" (amperehours, Ah or Coulomb, C). Sometimes I don't even know what people mean.

You guys are welcome to it.

For sure if you sent the 3d model to a commercial printer, it would come out much much better. I still have the files. Just export it as a .stl and send it to a printer. You'll want to make sure the Pi fits though.. I modeled it off of a Pi model someone submitted so I don't know if the scale is perfect.

Wait.. after looking at the files, I already made an stl.. this is just the front face though.. this is the most complicated piece so just mold this onto someone else's Pi case...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/jwse19n2opo0r64/case2.stl

Hell, I might have given this away on the Makerbot site... God I'm getting old. I can't remember anything anymore!!!

@anyone considering ARM + desktop like use, better options exist:

https://blacksn0w.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/magazine.odroid.com_assets_201301_pdf_ODROID-Magazine-201301.pdf
(In CPU performance (multithreadedSW) ODROID HW is up to 11* faster than RPi)

(to my understanding we will see AROS/AEROS preinstalled ARM device soon... but perhaps not yet with odroid HW...)

More interesting comparissons:

Hi,
Odroid is much faster.
Quadcore 1.7GHZ vs. 700MHZ single core.
1 Odroid MHZ is 3+ times faster than 1 Pi MHZ.

A pi with 700MHZ equals a Pentium 200
A Odroid U3 with 1.7GHZ single core equals a ATOM.
So you get a quadcore ATOM for 60$.

Oh and 2GB RAM are 2GB RAM ; )

I even compile on the odroid.. you would not like to do that on a Pi ; )

Whatever:
In short someone will announce a new bundle called AmiQube based on imx6 platform.
I say someone because I just provide AEROS.

hmm.. usb is very flexible. External Audio/videograbber, miners, soundcards, cameras and so on can be attached with usb.
The difference is that the device cost 60$ and a Amiga had cost 8times more or even more depending on model.
If your device gets old you can just buy every 3 years a new one replacing the old for a fraction of costs.
30years bleading edge for the same Price as buying 1 Computer to use for 30years.

Ofcourse this doesn't offer the same emotions ; )

Does anyone have the needed stl files for an A1200 case? (the upper lid, the lower lid, the trapdoor and the unused lid behind the floppy). We are planning on modifying the A1200 case.
