This is impressive. The fact that a pc case this size can be printed on a small build volume printer is a great design choice, with so much attention to detail in terms of build volume and structural integrity.
Been following your 3D printed case builds for a little while now, and can’t wait to see what else you cook up. Keep em coming!
Thank you Lars! I’m glad to hear you enjoy my content! 😊
You rock! You served the 3DP world well by making it fit on 180mm build plates.
Thank you! I hope to be able to make a few more options for small volumes in the time coming 😊
The amount of attention to detail is so awesome, especially all the extra effort put into easy assembly.
Thank you! I’m glad to hear you like it! 😊
I have an NR200P and this is like the perfect 3d printer friendly version, love it
Thank you! 😊
It amazes me how well designed this case is. Great job! :D
Thank you! This design has included a lot of head scratching and staring into walls trying to come up with solutions! 😁
I hope this blows up, this is insanely good
Thank you so much! 😊
absolutely brilliant
Thank you Mike!

Very cool. Thanks for making a case for the small build plate Prusa Mini.
Thanks! And you’re welcome! My goal is to over time offer a big variety of designs to satisfy any need for most people😊
Nice work !!! As always great job and like how you open to people’s request 😊!!
Thank you! 😊
Really cool way of attaching all of the pieces together! Might be something useful for other applications as well 😍
Thank you! I’m probably not the first inventor of these techniques but they were a real headic to figure out in the first place 😅
Definitely transferrable to many other applications!
Nice! Thank you for the small printer size
You are welcome! 😊
Great job, as usual! Thank you.
Thank you! 😊
Finally, cant wait to begin printing.
Awesome! 📈
Very good work. Amazing design :)

My favorite 3d printer content creator!!! Yay new video❤❤❤❤
🥳🥳🥳❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for following up on comments' recommendations! :D
I do my best to make as many requests as possible come true, but it’s hard to keep up with every single request so I have to filter it down to what projects seem interesting and are highly requested 😁
Nice work bro !!!
Thank you! 😁
nice build again bro
Thank you! 😊
Love your Work ! You should do a small video on some of the process you used in the 3d design software .
Thank you! I have considered it! I may do at some point 😊
Here are a couple suggestions for new case designs. Use the same joinery concepts used in this case to create a small 3u/4u 19" server rackmount chassis that has modular inserts for the front. 5.25 inch bays work well for this, as there are many drive cages or fan mounts people have already designed or are already available. Another design idea is for a small NAS case that maybe uses a backplane that's readily available on aliexpress or other shops. If no backplane, then a cageless way to secure the hard drives would be ideal. Something that can hold 6 3.5 inch drives and an itx board would be great. Something to make it stand out from the many other 3d printed NAS cases would be to allow Matx compatibility. Perhaps you can use the often inexpensive Flex Atx power supplies to save space. Can't wait to see your next design. Keep up the good work.
Hi! Thank you!
And you’re actually not too far off to be honest. I’m about to publish a mini ITX 4-bay NAS case 😁 not exactly how you imagined but using some of the same joinery, it’s Ender 3 size friendly, and has some cool little features 😁
Found this video on my for you page and after watching the video I am impressed on the design and build quality and also the fact it looks nice to and to be honest is better than most case designs. Though I would like to suggest as a idea and that is put fan mounting holes on the bottom
That’s a good point. If using a 2-slot GPU like me you could probably get away with some slim intake fans at the bottom. I’ll look into it. Thanks! Maybe even an exhaust fan at the top above the CPU cooler.
Your video are inspiring! Lot of intelligent solution to assembly and structural problems. I'm printing a your Little Boy S that I have to cut a bit to make it fit a 260x260 bed , cross my finder I did not get it wrong. Hope to see an updated version of that by you someday.
Thank you! I hope the Little Boy case works out for you! I’d love to see a «Make» if you manage to make it work. (Or just some pictures in general to see how it turned out) 😁
@@makerunitif it out good I will. May I suggest to add to your projects also which print profile settings are you using for your prints? Because apart from the honeycomb effect I've seen in the other video there were other settings I could spot on the screen that were not the standard ones. (like "solid infill threshold area" = 70 )
@@Macs I’m using stock Orca profiles… 😊 only modified infill and wall count, and some other minor changes but I feel like unless you have the exact same printer, with the exact same filament, with the same calibration settings, the settings will be different from printer to printer in my opinion. I have completely different settings for example when printing on my Ender 3 vs. My K1 Max
this is really cool
Thank you! 😊
This is AWESOME! 😬🥳
Thank you! 😁
At least you understand about build volume that anyone wants
Yeah I’ve understood that the majority of 3D printer owners do not have access to large print beds making many of my cases a no-go 😅 I’m trying to slowly adapt to what the community wants rather than what’s convenient for myself. Also, I do like a challenge!
Yes yes yes. The one for small print area, like Ender 3, and long GPUs case version. Awesome stuff. Thank you. This goes directly to the "projects to do" list
Awesome! I thought when I first have to join panels anyways, I might as well shrink them down to even the smallest printers 😁
Thank you for designing and making cases for us who still use smaller build volumes!!! Hopefully this is an indication for future released for a full sized atx/matx/PSU design! *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*
I mean, technically most of the parts are scalable so a mATX case based on the same concept is not impossible!
Beautiful. Also great for those 200mm beds where the adhesion on the outer perimeter isn't the best due to heating flaws. I'm sure if someone wants they can get it under 1kg as well by using lightweight polymer (i.e. HIPS) and decreasing the infill percentage.
Thank you! Weight can definitely be cut down a bit, I also used about 5-6 external perimeters for extra strength.
great design buddy. just ordered myself a bambu p1p. i have an idea for a case which i will be trying once i get the p1p
Awesome! Have fun with your new printer! 😊
Awesome project! Now I just have to get my used Ender v2 refurbished and running.
Thank you! I’m glad the project caught your interest! 😊
@@makerunitGot any recommendations on videos that show how to refurb a Ender 3 v2? It was used and slightly modified when I bought it from someone who was upgrading.
@@deechvogt1589 Hmm, I can’t think of any specific videos and I feel like when refurbushing a printer you’d only have to swap out the worn parts.
I’d recomment checking out if the v-slot wheels are worn, and if the printer is not used too much you can probably just tighten them a bit with the adjusting nut. (But only if the print head feels loose, they may also be too tight causing unnecessary friction for your motors)
Also check your belt tension by adjusting the tension knob. I don’t have an exact method for adjusting this correctly as I just go off feel, but a lot of people tend to tighten these too much.
My Ender 3v2 has an upgraded mainboard but that’s not really necessary, just something I did to allow for stuff like Linear Advance (which requires some simple code modifying).
Apart from that I changed mine to direct drive with an adapter I designed myself which I prefer not to share due to some design flaws that makes changing filament very hard.
Generally, the two things I mentioned above, the belt tension, and if the wheels are worn on any of the axis are my main recommendations, I’ve printed hundreds of hours on mine and not ever done a «full refurbish» to be honest, just a couple nozzle swaps and new V slot wheels.
@@makerunit Thank you very much for your suggestions. Now I know where to begin.
I'm waiting to see how small builds are going to get with modern APU's + flex PSU's. This is an awesome build though, especially considering there are companies out there charging for the same thing.
The new 8700G APU from AMD looks very promising! I’m considering to get one, but that would also mean I’d need a AM5 motherboard, DDR5 ram and more, so I’ll wait a bit to see how it performs to see if I can justify getting one 😁
@@makerunit I was thinking the same thing. I currently run Linux on my main machine but still need a Windows box at home so I have a mini PC just for windows stuff but I'm thinking in the future I might see about building a tiny 8600G system just for the fun of it, but I'm not in a rush (and would need to get a 3d printer first anyway =D).
@@nadtz I’m in progress making a new small APU case right now actually, the idea is to use a 5700G which I already own, a Noctua L12S cooler paired with a really quiet 200mm intake fan, hopefully making the case almost completely silent even under load. (And again with zero screws, only slide-in place parts that latch.)
@@makerunit L12S is exactly what I was thinking to keep everything low profile, looking forward to seeing what you come up with as inspiration!
Screwless and toolless design for the case is a huge step up engineering quality imo, love it, would you say rigidity is as strong as it would be with screws?
Thank you Tim!
A design consisting of many smaller panels will lack some of the strength compared to solid panels printed on a larger surface, but to counteract the weakness in the joints I intentionally made sure to interlock the panels in all directions so to be honest I don’t really notice much of those weak points.
With the side panels off, I do notice it a little, because there are some pins on the side panels that serve a function in stiffening everything up as well.
With all panels in place the overall rigidity feels pretty close to my other cases with bigger one-piece panels.
I don’t really see many downsides to using joints compared to screws.
Eliminating the need for any special type of screws and inserts makes the build much more appealing too, knowing you could make it all right from home 😁
Awasome job!!
Thank you! 😊
My next case will 100% be one of your builds! Amazing work! Any thought to making a case to cleanly integrate a USB hub with SD card reader?
Hi! Awesome to hear! I’m so used to using an external hub under my screen so to be honest I keep forgetting to even consider front USB ports 😅 I’ll keep it in mind and try my best to implement it where I see fit, I often want to have my case exteriors as clean as possible, but I guess there are probably some clean ways of implementing front ports, perhaps down by the feet
Nice!
Thank you! 😊
Cool design! It would interesting if a case like this could be made to support mATX and ATX
It’s on my to-do list!
OMG THIS IS SOOOO GOOD!
Also can you also remix a version for printers that are not small. While it is great that you design for the smallest printer, because everyone can use the design, “issues” like the side wall flex would be solved for people with bigger printers. Just as an idea 😉
Also keep up the great work
OMG THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!
A version with full-size panels is definitely a possibility! Thanks for the idea, I’ve honestly been so focused on the 180x180mm goal that making this available for bigger printers didn’t even cross my mind 😅
Genius
Thank you!
Well done. Got so much inspiration from things done here. What material would you recommend printing this in ? I would like to stay away from ABS. Are there any other that are capable of handling high temperatures?
Yes, ASA for example.
PETG should work aswell, and is easier to print than both ABS and ASA imo.
I printed all my parts in PETG, but you can also use ASA and ABS.
Detailed information about my printing recommendations can be found on Printables. 😊
@@TheDeantonio At what temperature would PETG deform?
Very good! I liked that you designed it for 3D printers with smaller printing beds. Could it be kept as default for future projects? Please make a "micro atx" version of this! or better yet, a "dynamic" version that depending on the pieces that fit together can "grow" from itx > m-atx > atx or include a smaller/larger GPU... or something like that. I think this "locking system" could be used to do something like that... think about it! Thank you!
I’ll try to do it where possible, but some projects simply won’t look aesthetically good if split into parts. 😁
Loved this zero screw 3d printed pc Its always so cool to see what 3d print can do ! I wonder what is the name of the cad software you are using in the video please ? :)
Thank you! And it’s called Shapr3D, I’m using the paid version but there is a basic version available for free to play around in 😊
Really nice!
can i suggest an ATX/mATX NAS 12-bay build + space for full length gpu (bed size constraints 300/350)?
I designed a temporary vertical stand that went in the bottom of a medium sized tower, but i would love it if we could use the 3d printer to make it into a smaller formfactor with cooling and drive stability in mind
Hi!
I’m planning on making a full size ATX case (also supporting mATX) at some point hopefully in not too long. And I’ll try my best to include some good storage options! 😊
seconded on this. atx nas case sounds great
I am not able to understand how you did it, simply incredible!! [Clickbait title, it has 2 screws on the PSU, xD] Sorry for my English xP
Haha, the meaning was the case excluding the component mounts. (Just the case without components installed can be assembled without screws) 😁
Hello! It is an amazing case. What thickness of the wall/board do you use? If high level of stiffness is needed what is your suggestion?
I’m usually running about 10mm thickness on the parts where the joints will sit. Some may say this is too much and they can also be hollowed out (thinner) in the middle to save filament but I personally prefer to keep it an even thickness as the parts will look much cleaner.
If making a part that’s just one big solid piece I’m usually happy with 3-4mm wall thicknes.
Nice
Btw have you thought about the PC wit a built in screen?
Optimum tech made his own case with a 4060 lp which is very thin so if you could make one with a screen
It has crossed my mind to implement a screen into a case some time, but I haven’t got any exact plans for now to do that but who knows, maybe some day I’ll suprise ya 😅
I'm sure u will
Thank you for making a case of this size. Now I can make my computer "portable" by sticking it in my 50L bag. And the fact the case is all combined with clips is outstanding.
Hey Andrew! I’m glad I was able to make something to fit your needs! I’d love to hear some feedback about your experience with the building process! 😊
@@makerunit I'll start printing it tomorrow as 2 minutes from now I'll be leaving or preparing to leave for work. I'll share how it went in your discord incase others were interested in printing it but not wanting to waste it to see how well it goes.
@@Andrew-qo2jg awesome, Sounds good! 😊
I hope to get some advice from you about if it's possible to design a case for a laptop motherboard that can house a couple fans as well. I think the case would end up thin and thinner than a DVD player or a closed laptop.. Is this possible? I was thinking the case could lay horizontally like a DVD player or it can stand like a PS5
Hi Jordan! Making a case for a laptop motherboard may be a little challenging because most laptops use different types of motherboards so the mounting holes and connectors etc. will be in different places so there’s really no universal way to create something like that.
It’s definitely possible to design, but I will probably never do it as I’m focusing on more universal projects that work with off the shelf components and standardized form factors 😊
However, I’m sure it’s doable but due to how many different laptop boards there are I can’t really be of much help there unfortunately…
I have plans of making some ITX or mATX cases that have these layouts, console style and laying flat, but not with custom motherboards.
Have you considered designing something utilizing pcie extensions to rotate the GPU for an even smaller case?
Definitely considered it. 😊 I’ve got a case in mind that might be a good sandwich case option.
i need something like this for a Micro ATX build but with an SFX power supply
Noted! 😊 I’m eventually planning on trying to re-use some of these techniques to create an even bigger case to accomodate mATX and possibly even full size ATX motherboards 😊
@@makerunit that would be so awesome and if you do please tag me in it because I would love to start the process of printing that
Oh I see this must have been so much fun make that system! xDD
The inside had a bit much room for my taste if not for me I'd maybe make it for a friend just to see how he likes it! xD
Just to things
1. I can only go by my experience from a CPU cooler fan bracket from some years ago.
If the PSU holding bracket ages (probably won't happen around the PSU) then probably cracks will start right under the PSU and then the PSU screws won't do much. So just in case, I'd add a bit more material that would connect the upper screw holes and form a seperate part to go into the roof or connect to the right and left PSU bracket, just to have a bit of redudancy. Because if one of these two pieces ever snaps, I don't think the one screw on the other side will hold it in place and at that height the graphics card maybe won't like it ;)
2. 10:34 Noooh >:o
don't go the easy route, just make a part that stiffens the frame from the inside like the other pieces you made for the body ;p
3. How about making some 1-1,2mm indentation on the outside then one could place in some some fancy metal plates wih some fixed corner radius where no fans are placed. :D
It was definitely a lot of fun (and also frustration) creating this design! I understand your concern about the PSU bracket and I’ll look into ways of reinforcing it if possible, though I do not think it will break off, especially if using PETG or ABS/ASA. (But you may be right)
Embedding metal pieces could definitely strengthen the structure, but I specifically wanted this design to use as few extra parts as possible 😁
The «extra room» in the case could definitely have been shrunk down a bit, but due to the transparent side panel I wanted to have the interior as clean as possible, where in a non-transparent case the interior layout wouldn’t be as critical.
interesting project, may I know which type of filament you used?
I used some generic cheap black off the shelf PETG from a local hardware store in Norway. I’ve never really tried using «fancy filaments», though I have a few rolls of that too laying around waiting to be tested 😅
oh thanks for the tips, because I am not sure if I should use ABS or not. I only have generic PETG right now@@makerunit
@@wordjumper2713 I see. I’ve made a lot of cases and mostly used PETG for the last two years. Never had issues at least. 😊 I think it mostly lays in your settings. Poor settings can create weak parts no matter what material you use.
This is awesome. What's the case volume?
That’s a really good question… I totally forgot to even measure that… I’ll come back to you on that. If I forget to respond again I’ll probably update it in the Printables description 😁
I love to see the gpu at the top of the case
I answered your other comment 😊
th-cam.com/video/oyJ2Zuaj7rc/w-d-xo.html
hey!! im looking for a small case but i dont want to go through the hassle of getting a new motherboard ($300 in australia for mini itx), so Im looking for a case which can accommodate both an atx motherboard and an atx power supply. would that be possible with this design (obviously after tweaks)
Eventually I’m planning to use some of these techniques to create an even bigger case to support more different parts! Maybe even full size ATX 😊
Will it also fit a Matx motherboard? There seems to be a lot open real estate below the itx board
The size is unfortunately not big enough for Micro ATX motherboards.
Mini ITX motherboards are 170x170mm. MATX boards are mostly 244x244mm, so we’d need 74mm of clearance on each side which we unfortunately don’t have.
Now that is some japanese woodworking shit right there. Nice!
Haha thank you! 😊
Any chance we can see some cool case for RPi 5 based mini PC?
I’m not saying no, but I can say that currently it’s not on my to-do list unfortunately, so if it were to happen, it’d probably be quite some time in the future 😅
Все круто. только вот стоймость материала и работы говорит о том что проще готовый у китайца корпус купить примерно за те же деньги.
Пока производители пластика не перестанут продавать пластик в тридорога, никакой массовости 3д принтеров не будет.
I agree, but what draws people to 3D printed cases, and also what draws me to doing this is the joy of creating something from scratch and putting it together yourself rather than buying something pre-made is what keeps me going. I love the challenge of it, and I don’t really mind the price that follows 😄
Any thoughts on a rack mount server/NAS case?
Not sure about rack mount, but a NAS option is on my to-do list. Will probably be a relatively small APU NAS though supporting somewhere in the range of 4-8 drives, possibly a expandable design, just thoughts so far.
I really want to make print this case, but I have a mATX Motherboard, ATX PSU and a 240mm AIO. I watched your mATX Video, but my Ender 3 is to small.
It’s on my to-do-list 😊
@@makerunit Nice. Cant wait for it!
So just curious since I don’t 3D print. How much money does it cost to print this case in materials?
Well, with an approximate use of 1.7kg filament (assume approx 2 spools of 1kg each) the cost of one spool ranges from 18-30 USD, let’s say 20 for some cheap decent stuff, then add the plexiglass, we’re probably looking at $35-45 in total + print time and power usage… 3D printed cases aren’t always the cheapest options but being a maker, making things is just much more enjoyable than buying it and I think that’s what draws many people to printing cases even though they often end up spending more than they would with just an off the shelf case.
@@makerunit not bad!
Your on the right track
Too small tho:)
Well, luckily we’re not at the end of the tracks yet! More track ahead! 😉
Hello, Dear Maker. I am very interested in this prefabricated case for small printers. Are you thinking of making a sandwich-type case with this series?
I have a lot of different project ideas on my to-do list, and Sandwich case is one of the cases on my list. I do not have an exact time when it will happen but it’s coming 😊
Hi dude,
Could u design a vertical case?
Like the little boy s, but vertical, fit 290mm gpu , matx mobo and atx psu?
Like the meshlicious?
Or a tutorial how to make it with fusion 360, i would pay if u have a patreon.
Cheers
I have a Printables Club, which is like a patreon but on Printables.com. 😁 I am planning to make more vertical cases eventually but not right away. It’s hard to say a time frame but it’s on my to-do list, this is requested from many! But mATX and Vertical don’t mix too well, aren’t vertical cases supposed to be tall and narrow? 😁 if it’s too wide it might as well be a normal tower.
@@makerunitIts mini-dtx miss spelled :D
I can subscribe, np.
Im not really good design, something like meshlicious would be topnocth for me.
@@vapenap Subscribing is highly appreciated, but don’t feel like you have to, you can wait until a suitable design for you is available. I don’t want you to feel like you have to, to get your idea through 😊
mATX version of this that doesn’t exceed the 256mm bambulabs printbeds? I love the other mATX options you’ve made, but all of them require a 300mm+ build capacity. This case looks like it might actually squeeze in an mATX board already, just saying 😂
Doesn’t the bambu have some other volume restrictions due to the purge tower placement? Or am I wrong? Can the Bambu actually print 256x256? Or maybe it’s just for those with the AMS unit, or maybe I just misunderstood the whole thing 😅
Anyways, I’m planning on making more cases the next months to accomodate more different part configurations!
@@makerunit good point :) i generally don't use purge towers even for multi-color. the testing purge/wipes section in the front and back bring it down to about 250-ish

Any plans for matx version.
Of this exacy model, not at the moment, but I am planning to make a ATX case very soon that is printable on the Ender 3 or similar) 220x220mm print volume. That one should also be able to hold mATX motherboards. 😊 in the sketching phase now but I’ve got some fun ideas in mind possibly using some of the same techniques as in this one.
Not a fan of glass in pc cases, but otherwise this looks really cool.
And that’s why I intentionally designed both side panels to use the exact same mounts, meaning the non-glass panel will actually be usable on both sides, so it would be as easy as just printing two of them😊
@@makerunit Genius, dude!
I was debating buying a mini itx case or a 3d printer, almost decided on a 3d printer before seeing my favorite case on sale.
I'll try your designs whenever I save up for a 3d printer tho, love your vids!
Great design, and honestly, well sliced and executed. HOWEVER, for anyone not trying to build this for shits and giggles, please consider buying a cheap chinese small case instead, the filament for this will be more expensive, and you can buy aluminum cases for dirt cheap.
Thanks! And yeah I totally agree with you. The main reason why I do 3D printing is for the fun of creating things from scratch and the learning I do along the way, not necessarily to save money.
If making stuff is of no interest, I’d also recommend buying a pre-manufactured option. 😊
Also as a fellow maker, hats off to you my guy, wonderful build!@@makerunit
@Doile911 What's a cheap small Chinese case worth??? Cause i printed my case for less than 5 bux in 5 hours. HOWEVER you have very pretty little hands.
@@Defyant123 Thank you! Noone ever complimented my hands, much appreciated. Ex. Chieftec CI-01b-op
@@Defyant123 Also i would love to hear where you got your filament from or what brand. Maybe i am using very expensive filament.
This is so cool! Anyone try this with SFX-L? Curious if my Loki will fit
Hi Jonathan! My answer is MAYBE. Because theoretically, yes, however there is only about 25-28mm of cable management clearance behind the connectors assuming your power supply is 125x125x63.5mm in size. Which may be a little tight, but might also work. So yeah, maybe… 😅 Unfortunately I do not have a SFX L supply to test this theory.
@@makerunit Thanks! I had a feeling that what might happen. Is there enough room to modify the bracket so it sits further toward the left side of the case?
@@pctechadvisor Hi! Yeah it might be possible to move it slightly, however it might get tight with the clearance to the glass on the other side for the C13 cable, unless you’re able to get a very low profile C13 cable.
@@makerunit I haven't got it together yet, so I guess I will need to see how much space I am working with before trying to modify your bracket. Thanks!
@@pctechadvisor If you could do me the favor of measuring how far your current connector sticks out of the PSU, I can modify the file for you to maximize the space use. It takes me only a couple minutes to modify if I know how much clearance you need for the C13 you have, as they all differ a bit. Measure from the flat plane where the screws attach, and to the very top of the power connector.
what is the total outer volume (L) of the case?
Hi! The outer volume of the case is approx. 18.7 liters, (360x261x200mm) 😊
let me know how long till it melts
I think I can answer that already. Never. 😊 But I guess it will eventually start to decompose after a few hundred years.
would this print on A1 Mini?
Yeah, 180x180mm is the required print surface 😁 the A1 mini and the Prusa Mini were what I had in mind when designing this.
How much did cost to print this case?
About $40 worth of material + power button and plexiglass and the magnets, power socket etc, so it’s hard to give an exact number as these may vary in price from place to place.
Hi there. These look awesome!! Do you sell these out of interest? 🙂
At the moment I do not, and I personally will most likely not sell my cases due to limited space and number of printers, but I’m considering to create a commercial license so other people can sell these.
@@makerunit will have to invest in a 3D Printer at some point. Do you recommend any that will print this size all okay?
@@adambailey1993 this size can be printed on most common printers, this one specifically is actually intentionally designed in small pieces to accomodate «everyone’s» needs 😊 Just make sure it’s bigger than 180x180mm size for this specific case, BUT, however, I recommend getting a bigger printer as they don’t cost that much more and gives you so much more flexibility if you have the space for it!
@@makerunit Awesome!! Thankyou!! :D
@@adambailey1993 the ideal size is 300x300mm if you intend on printing a lot of things and have space for it, but if you’re mainly considering it for this project somewhere in the range of 220x220 to 250x250mm bed size will be a good starting point for a «first printer»
Kannst du auch ein Gehäuse machen:ATX (German)
Haha I don’t actually speak German, I’m from Norway. The German thing was kind of a joke, but from my very little understanding of German I’m guessing you’re asking if I can make a case for ATX? Am I right?
@@makerunit yes

First!

Printables? really? welp with is useless.
I might emerge my designs into other platforms over time. So people can join from their preferred platform rather than me forcing people onto that specific platform 😊
Nice idea but worst thing ever.
1-the filaments like PLA/PETG @70°c usually melt, bend and deform.
2-i would never use it for "gaming hardware" because that hardware reaches high temperature.
3-it will cost approx the same amount of money of aluminium "basic" case, which all knows, is better than plastic for the heat (1,7Kg at nearly 18€Kg + some dozens of hours of printing time at ~0,25€ per hour x 100ish hours...)
Nice to see, but no thank you. Maybe it will be good for a raspberry (according the raspi size, not for a standard PC)
Hi!
I totally understand your concern and this is a very common misunderstanding about 3D printed PC cases. A lot of people seem to think that they will melt if the internal components ever reach high temps but what’s important to keep in mind is that all these temperatures are recorded deep inside the components at it’s processing cores, meaning that the hot spots are never actually touching any of the plastic parts.
It’s like when you turn on your stove in the kitchen and hold your hand a little bit above it, it feels warm, but not burning, but as soon as you touch it, it burns.
Even though the cores of the parts are hot, the air surrounding it will never ever reach those same temperatures.
Also, 3D Printing a PC case is rarely about saving money, but more about the joy of making stuff for the fun of it.
@Ale_giro @Ale_giro Are you that guy who's never 3D printed a case???? Case modded? or even built a custom case other than a "shop brought" one. It's always that guy who does this post.
