“Love these little cases, really good fit to the board itself and they look classy! Thoughtful design also has cutouts for the fan shim and its button too”
“I watched the assembly video which said to be careful when placing around the usb ports but it just wouldn't fit, as I tried to gently wiggle SNAP part of the layer snapped.
The rest fit perfectly after a little bit snapped off.”
“A simple and elegant case that does not hide the Pi, which I like. GPIO pins are open and accessible, although you may want to shave off a bit of the top layer of the case with a Dremel just for good measure. I got the Ninja case, which has a nice clear top. The screws are a wee bit longer than needed, but they can be trimmed, if you like. I ended up leaving them long since it lifts the Pi off my bench a bit more for better air flow.”
“The case assembles easily once you realise the sheets are numbered.
Minor problems with the fan shim:
1) I have two cases with slightly different cut outs for the Fan Shim. One is OK, the other keeps the button continuously pressed. I will do some DIY with a file to fix the problem.
2) It is almost impossible to press the button on the Fan Shim without a miniature screwdriver.
One WIBNI to have some form of top with a standard fan hole as an alternative to using a Fan Shim (not cheap, but fun) and a GPIO slot to protect the innards from dust and dirt.”
