[@mibrahim4245]

This is just Elegant !! .. can't wait for the Carbon fiber case ..

[@grzesiogejmer]

I buyed this version of green glass is awesome! Thank you guy!

[@linzhang8787]

Hi Michael, that’s very cool. Be happy to see your design. It always brings us surprise.

[@TheJacklwilliams]

I need to acquire a co2 laser so I can work with acrylic!!! Michael as always the simplicity and elegance of your designs just absolutely kick my ass! BRAVO!!!

[@MichaelKlements]

Thank you Jack

[@익명-n5d]

Looks fabulous. I really love this version. Of course. The previous one was good as well. I hope to make my own server with my Raspberry Pi. Thank you :)

[@Lumi-gameplays]

I think your creations for Raspbarry are so chic and well done. The content is very good to listen and watch

[@MichaelKlements]

Thank you!

Thanks Philip

[@BWGPEI]

Your creativity and workmanship is mind blowing. I wouldn't be doing this myself, but sure do admire what you have done.

[@unperrier]

well video after video it's yet another case that allows to place a sponsored product.

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks BWGPEI

[@BWGPEI]

@@unperrier Well, no sale here on the Raspberry Pi. I can pick up a great deal more power for less than $20 at a second-hand store.

[@unperrier]

@@BWGPEI have a look in the description for all the affiliate links, at the very least. He's probably contacted (and paid) to promote the machine. I'm not saying this is bad, just that you can't say it's yet another creative video, because it's an advertisement like he made many in the past.

@@unperrier doesn't he deserves to get compensated for all the time, effort and equipment he has invested in this channel?

[@TangledWinston]

Just like the HYTE Y-60 case.

[@kayezero703]

Did you watched psivewri all amd build too?

[@ImMajesticAf]

HYTE PI-60 🤭

[@squirralien1863]

What a beautiful new design Michael, I have brought a couple of your previous models but this one is really nice,

[@MichaelKlements]

Thank you for the support!

[@CommanDOH-JKU]

Looks great, but I would have aligned up the fan with the heat sink. Would look significantly better.

[@robhood-c2o]

Beautiful build 👏

[@MichaelKlements]

Thank you

[@Skhulile84]

Brilliant case! My thoughts on the printer... seems a bit of a hit or miss with some units, some customers like me have units where the Auto Bed Leveling is a nightmare! The probe is not consistent throughout the bed, resulting in a wrong mesh and terrible first layer

[@sketchy1223]

Yea, got the same problem on the standard S1

[@scougarmagfedpaintball5733]

Have you done up the screws on the back of the X-axis (gantry) ? These can come loose (especially from the factory :( ). You need to take the x axis off the machine to get to them. After that, re-install and adjust your eccentric wheels on the Z axis so they are just 'snug' (Not tight, just to the point movement is no longer present). After that, check that your bed isn't loose. This will mean having to unscrew the bed where the springs are, flipping the bed upside down and doing the same check on the eccentric nut. It's worthwhile ensuring that ALL other nuts and bolts on the printer are tight. Lastly, check the connection point for the probe itself is not loose that would result in bad measurements.

[@scougarmagfedpaintball5733]

Oh and ensure you are running the right G-Codes to ensure the mesh you made is actually loading :) (Note, this is my direct drive Ender 3 V2 with ABL and Jyers firmware btw, but these should work fine). G28 ; home all axes M420 S1 ; enable the mesh G29 L0 ; load mesh G29 A ; enables UBL G29 J ; tilt mesh G1 X20 Y20 Z0.2 F3000 ; get ready to prime G92 E0 ; reset extrusion distance G1 X160 E15 F600 ; prime nozzle G1 X180 F5000 ; quick wipe

[@Skhulile84]

@@scougarmagfedpaintball5733 Thanks for all the tips! I have since done the above and getting way better prints, however I have noticed how terribly warped my bed actually is. Trying to see if I can get a replacement hotbed that is flat.

[@scougarmagfedpaintball5733]

@@Skhulile84 You may find that the warp of your bed is affected by how tight the springs are on the bed. My system seems to have a 'sweet spot' where the warp is mostly gone. Just food for thought. If I am struggling with level, I back everything off and start again. (And the level will change when heated vs being cold btw). Apologies if I have mentioned anything you already know! If I can help people skip some of the pain I went through in learning, I try to 👍. Have a great day.

[@gaming-zombie1392]

Amazing Job

[@OnceinaSixSide]

Damn that's clean, nice!

[@chrisgrosek]

Really nice! I wish I had the ability to work with acrylic. But my S1 is great, and really want to add a pi to it. Keep up your awesome work! 👍🏻

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Chris!

[@ImMajesticAf]

Love the vid, i never considered taking inspiration from existing full desktop cases for making a mini pi case, this does honestly look great! I'm tempted to get one printed, though maybe taking on the desktop approach with the fan on the back of the case where the usb and ethernet ports are located Overall, love the design and print!

[@MichaelKlements]

There's something neat about having a really miniature version of a computer on my desk - I like it. The fan on the back of the case would also be good to get more visibility through the side of the case.

[@vaporjoes]

You printed those with supports? from what i can see, they can be printed supportless but I guess a messure of assuance is best.

[@MichaelKlements]

Yeah it actually prints out better without any supports, I tried it without afterwards.

[@Sithhy]

Would be cool to see you design a case for the Compute Module 4 IO Board that RaspberryPi themselves sell

[@gregspeakman9337]

Your vid and your designed case were great. The 3D printers looks like a winner. It looks like a good replacement for my Anycubic 3D Mega.

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Greg! I haven't tried any of the Anycubic printers, how's the 3D Mega been?

[@gregspeakman9337]

@@MichaelKlements It was my first and only 3D printer. Overall it was an easy setup. I had to make a tarp setup to cover the printer and added a small ceramic heater to get good quality products. However, the bed was warped and it was out by an mm or two that caused some issues. Also, after numerous attempts, I could not print with TPU. A good beginners model to learn on.

[@simonburke6681]

Top notch, thanks for sharing 👍

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Simon

[@030Cappucino]

Wouldn't it be more optimal for the fan to place it right in front of the cooler grill?

[@MichaelKlements]

The Ice Tower cooler is so oversized for the Pi that it makes very little difference. As long as there is airflow through the case to remove the hot air, it is a very effective cooling solution.

[@030Cappucino]

@@MichaelKlements makes sense.

[@michaellagler4545]

Really awesome case any possibility of adding another slot on the back to add an SSD under the pi?

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Michael, yes it should be quite easy to move the ports up and add a second USB slot for an SSD shield.

[@ZOMBIEEZ]

you basically made a minature version of the: HYTE Y60 case.. and it looks really good! :o

[@golosfardyrekr5408]

Woooowww this is a very nice case for RPI4. I hope you will make the files get on Etsy so I can buy them and make a case for my new Pi. Now we just need to wait for the Ender 3 S 1 pro to get to the Danish market. Once again you have made a very nice case for the Pi.

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Golosfar! I wanted it to be a bit different to the original, I'm quite happy with how it's turned out. I've put the files up on my Etsy store as well.

[@bobgeisel13]

Nice case! Reminds me of the Hyte Y60 PC case. Try a black and white version.

[@MichaelKlements]

It does look quite similar, It looks like I'd need to separate the 3D printed parts into black and white sections to get it to look the same. The Hyte Y60 case looks pretty cool in that colour scheme!

[@thegreeneyej]

Like the case!

[@JustCreateYou]

Have your display on the pro using ocotprint does it show the status of the progress ? Because mine doesn't ... I can't stand this screen ..

[@adrianmares269]

Looks great, I'm curious on a similar design but the pi would go on a side and having a low profile ice cooler, and a bit of space to include a ssd. For the cables the best way is to use those that are like an L style. See the TerraPi rig to get the basic idea

[@MichaelKlements]

I’ve just adapted this case for an SSD, video coming next week!

[@SB-qm5wg]

nice case!

[@MichaelKlements]

Thank you

[@GaryMcNeill]

This looks amazing! I want one! I don't know what the hell for... But I want one!

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Gary, it looks great on a desk next to a full size monitor

[@OdykKayne]

Very nice, but I do miss the little extra info screen you had on the front of your old case! :)

[@MichaelKlements]

Over the weekend I was thinking whether it would be worth mounting it internally so that it's visible through the front part of the acrylic, it might look quite nice to see the whole display inside the case. Maybe I'll look at this as an add-on.

[@OdykKayne]

@@MichaelKlements For sure, it would look quite neat hanging' in there! I'm still using a personalized version of your first case design for my Pi and that little info screen is very handy! I do need to learn how to program it though to get some different info on it :)

[@ulrichkalber9039]

could you position the fan in a place directly in line with the CPU cooler? with a little acryllic you could build a duct that directly blows into the CPU cooler. the difference in temperature should be minimal, but fan and cooler in line would look more orderly and clean IMHO

[@MichaelKlements]

Yes you can move the fan forward. I prefer it being towards the back of the case rather as this obstructs less of the view into the case.

[@Extner4]

Wish i could get a free ender s1... great video though. Keep up the good work!

[@g.s.3389]

very nice !!!

[@viktor5834]

Make 3 side acrylic pls

[@WKfpv]

I'm even printing nylon 12 on my ender 3 S1 pro, in an enclosure for sure, but it is working flawless for me. About the case, it's overkill, but beautiful.

[@MichaelKlements]

I haven't tried nylon on the Ender 3 S1 yet, but that's definitely something I'd like to try

[@loolokhan]

❤❤

[@TheWormeryLLC]

I do not own a 3d printer but enjoy watching your KZbin channel and perhaps one day I will get a Creality Ender printer, just out of curiosity what's the brand of the little screwdriver you use?

[@MichaelKlements]

Thanks Lino, my one is a Xiomi driver but I haven't been able to find them in stock recently so I've linked to a similar one in the video description.

[@terotahvo6849]

Why fan is not aligned with heatsink?

[@MichaelKlements]

Because it would be right in the front of the case then and would block out most of the view into the case.

[@terotahvo6849]

@@MichaelKlements I mean it could be like in previous case. Blowing directly to whole heatsink. It would only block view of the heatsink.

[@MichaelKlements]

On the previous case the Pi is the opposite way around, so the heatsink is towards the back of the case.

[@TheMrR9]

I want that printer. I need more printers

[@RevoltHQX]

Nice!!!

[@HarrisonFrazier]

It'd be cool if you used a PWM fan and controlled the speed with a gpio pin via a script!

[@MichaelKlements]

There are a couple of examples out there to do that, I'll look at putting a short tutorial together for it.

[@bartender_billy6229]

I want that case

[@bartender_billy6229]

You should print this case again but larger to accommodate your liquid cooling pump and block setup

[@rayjacob7031]

can you print one for me I'm in JHB?

[@MichaelKlements]

Yes, they're available through my Etsy store - www.etsy.com/au/shop/TheDIYLifeCo

[@aaroncatolico7550]

Send me the CAD template for this, brother! 😅😂

[@dazagrt]

All that work and the bloody fan doesn't line up, the fan should really be on the other side.

[@MichaelKlements]

I didn't want the fan to be in line with the cooler because its then too far forward and takes up most of the window and view into the case. It could be moved to the other side though and then vented out the back.
