Much as I like the rawness (is that a word?) of the naked Raspberry Pi, it does feel like it would be very easy for me to break and, with huge waiting lists to get a replacement as demand massively outstrips supply, I really don’t want to break mine.\u00a0Consequently, I decided that a some sort of case would be appropriate (a punnet?).<\/p>\n

Punnet v1.0 (or maybe it was v0.1) was the brainchild of freind and neighbour Jon Cowell, who took a plastic box that had originally been used as packaging for a set of business cards (I’m told that Graze boxes work well too<\/a>) and used a Dremel multitool<\/a> to cut out holes for connectors. I also had a few spare business card boxes so, after an evening in Jon’s garage, I had a case for my Pi – and very happy with it I was too!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I also have a penchant for shiny things and, at around the same time as Jon and I created Punnet v1.0, I saw a Raspberry Pi blog post highlighting Paul Beech’s Pibow<\/a>. You can learn more (and place an order) on the Pibow website<\/a> and, whilst I’ve noticed that the price has gone up slightly since I bought mine it’s still great value.<\/p>\n

I had a chuckle at the the Ikea-inspired instructions and my son had fun putting it together.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

It also seemed to go down well at last weekend’s\u00a0Milton Keynes Raspberry Jam<\/a>. So that was Punnet v2.0.<\/p>\n

Another option would be to build a case out of Lego but the chances of my boys letting me raid the Lego box to take parts on a semi-permanent basis (even the Lego that dates back to my own childhood) is best described as slim. Thankfully, you can buy a kit of Lego parts to build a Raspberry Pi case<\/a>, based on a design from a 12-year old Scout called Biz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, for those with a flat-screen monitor that’s not fixed to the wall, SK Pang’s VESA mount for Raspberry Pi<\/a> looks interesting. Who needs an iMac when you can fix a Raspberry Pi to the back of a cheap monitor, eh?!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
