Summary

Friction fit case for STMicro Nucleo-144

This is an original design inspired by https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2421873. I was going to remix that one, but don't know how to do that yet.

This is the first 3D model I created. It is a case for at least some variants of the STM32 Nucleo-144 development board. I designed it in TinkerCAD, sliced it with OrcaSlicer 1.8.1, and printed it on an ELEGOO Neptune 4 Pro using ELEGOO Rapid PLA+ with the print mode set to "sport" and the extra fans turned on.

I've printed it once, and the result is serviceable, but it is by no means perfect:

  • Tolerances can be a bit tight, especially with the friction fit lid; you may want to tweak the model to make it more forgiving
  • I forgot to add a hole to view the debugger LED (LD4) between CN1 (debug micro-USB) and CN3 (GND, used with a jumper under the board as a leg when using the bare board)
  • You may experience some trouble directly plugging Arduino shields into the Nucleo's ZIO connectors when the lid is on
  • I do not know what the electrostatic build-up on PLA is like, so I'm not sure if this is ESD safe
  • Both the case and lid are in the same design file; I've not worked out how to split it in TinkerCAD yet.

Remixes are welcome!
