Raspberry Pi LEGO case

I built a LEGO case for my Raspberry Pi computer. It was blogged by The Brothers Brick.

I also created an LDraw model of the case. Here are step-by-step building instructions, so you can build your own and perhaps improve on my design:

A functional difference between this and other LEGO Pi cases I’ve seen is that mine is designed so that the Raspberry Pi’s circuit board slots directly into “rails” and is held securely in place when the hatch is closed, yet it can be easily removed by opening the hatch and sliding it out. No part of the Pi contacts the case except the very edges.
