    Default Raspberry Pi machined case interest

    I want to assess the interest in having a machined case made for the Raspberry Pi and Pi dac.

    If more than ten people are interested I will approach my machinist to see what can be done without breaking the bank.

    I have two interested persons so far today.

    If you are interested please state this interest on this thread, to avoid cluttering up Marco's Pi + Pi dac thread or my PM section.

    Regards
    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    guess the "machined case" is some kind of milled aluminium, or? Similiar as here: http://www.adafruit.com/products/1036

    Any chance for such a case just for the Raspi 2 w/o the iqaudio DAC?

    Cheers,
    Markus

    Hi Markus,

    Only if there is enough interest to warrant the set-up costs for machining. The case is likely to be fabricated using extrusions with holes milled into the panels/sides to accommodate the connectors.
