Another update for you all as this thread seems to be going along quite nicely.

We've taken an order for a number of cases and they are headed to Germany when complete.

Plenty of interest from all over the globe including the US, Columbia and Spain but to name a few.

We wanted to ask some feedback on whether you think we should start putting these on eBay to purchase as well.. Any thoughts?

Looks nice, but why is it so tall?

Hello Steve,

We could have fitted the Pi board into one of our smaller cases but it didn't seem to work as well and the proportions didn't look right. The current height is 66mm.

We can only describe the sensation of how it feels in your hand once the enclosure has been put together but it feels right. Very very sturdy, even with the additional plastic clear top.

With the extra room inside, it allows for a degree of extra's to be added to the Pi board itself, all whilst being housed in a secure and tough case. Admittedly, there isn't a great deal of room inside but the other great thing about the case is that it can customised if required which is a service we can offer with orders of 10 or more enclosures.

Where the USB sticks out how about a small piece of square plate the same colour of the case that sits in between the existing end plate and the edge of the USB connector hiding the sticking out bit making it look finished?

Hi Gary,

We can manufacture thinker ends plates to counter act the USB sticking out but from the attached images to this post, it doesn't really stick out a great deal.
