PDF

This is a case for the Calliope mini 3 including diffuser for the LEDs.

Its recommend to use dark colors (black, dark blue, …) for the top cover to avoid shinning of the LEDs through the cover. 

The case can stay at Calliope permanently and leaves the outer ports  exposed - for quick connection and tinkering by using crocodile clamps.

No screws needed - just snap-fit.  To remove the cover use a flat screwdriver. 
 

Printing: 

Just print like it is. No support needed. Infill 15% (or whatever your prefer)

Material : PLA 

→ Use dark colors for the cover (Calliope_Mini_3_top.stl)

→ Use any color for for the bottom (Calliope_Mini_3_bottom.stl)

→ Use translucent material for the diffuser (Calliope_Mini_3_insert_translucent.stl)

Calliope mini 3 is a good start  to enter the world of Arduino, ESP32, … Its quite simple to program by Microsoft MakeCode (Blocks / Python / Javascript) and OpenRoberta.
