Orange Pi Zero 2 Case + Extras
Description
PDFOrange Pi Zero 2 case that makes the additional USB 2.0 ports available without the need for the official extension board. Remix of a design by RyanPie86. Dust filter shown in the photos not included, those can be found over here.
What you'll need for this project:
- 8x M3 screws, 30mm long (case + fan w/ duct & filter)
- 4x M3 screws, short (USB breakout boards)
- 2x M3 screws (wall mount, optional)
- 2x USB 2.0 breakout board (specific design, 17x17mm PCB size)
- 8x GPIO cables
- 8x Angled GPIO pins for the breakout boards
- 1x 40x40x10mm 5V fan (3-Pin PWM is possible)
And of course
- A soldering iron
- Some solder
- An Orange Pi Zero 2 w/ smaller heatsinks
- Optional: Tiny zip-ties
Do NOT use PLA for this! The heatsinks inside will get way hotter than 60°C. I strongly recommend going with PETG or ABS.
Also don't mind the bad print quality on the photos, I'm a dork who used the wrong settings for PETG but didn't want to waste it either. 🙃
Double-check your USB pin cables before connecting something, a wrongly connected 5V can and will destroy something! Also make sure no cable gets into the fan, without one of the ducts this step can be a bit finicky.
The case can be put on the wall mount in any orientation.

The author remixed this model.
Differences of the remix compared to the original
- Replaced bottom plate with second case part to hold the USB 2.0 breakout boards & cables as well as holes for the wall mount
- Added additional fan ducts
- Changed the diameter for the installable fan from 30mm to 40mm
- Added a simple wall holder
- Slightly resized the I/O openings to accommodate small differences between boards
