Showing off my new tribute case

[iCLint]

Thought I would show off my new case. Designed in Fusion360 and 3d printed on a Prusa Mk2 and Printrbot simple metal it features functioning buttons that shut down and start the Pi back up

A script loaded at startup runs in the background and executes the shutdown command when the yellow button is pressed, I soldered pins onto the Pi’s restart header, connected to the green button which starts the pi backup

@iclint this is glorious.

If the button and joystick both worked to control games... That would be something to behold. Power button is a brilliant idea too though

Damn! That’s rad!

(No, but seriously this is pretty cool!)

@iclint good job guy! Chuck Norris approves it 😀

Yeah, @iclint could've had power buttons on the side of the base and used the buttons on top for gaming purposes. Then it would have felt like a really cool RetroPie themed Atari 2600 controller. But, it looks cool anyways. 😊

Making one with a real arcade stick and buttons would be a peice of cake ... or pie.
