PineA64 Home-Brew card-board Play Box for Android & LCD Enclosure
#1
Rainbow 
My PineA64 LCD and Android are officially mobile this morning, with this card-board home-brew mobile power enclosure  Blush

   

The simple solution while waiting for the official "Play Box" is to mount our fabulous and famous tablet guts in the ready-made enclosure the LCD was shipped in !

The packing foam cradle and support feet were glued to the top of the box with SIG-Bond craft glue. The PineA64 board hangs from the top of the box from steel supports and screws, while the battery rests on the bottom of the box. Power and reset switches have easy access through a trap-door cut in the bottom of the box, with a scapulae blade. At the moment the LCD just rests gently in the foam cradle (which was made of the LCD packing materials).  The tablet is 22.86cm x 14.29cm x 4.45cm , and weighs 492g (including the battery).

   

The PineA64 board hangs from the lid of the card-board boxed enclosure from four steel posts and mounting screws. You can see the FFC connectors in this pic (above) as well the famous glow of our little red power LED. Great care and finesse must be used when installing the cables into the FFC connectors. Gently (and I mean VERY gently) lift up on the black bar, and insert the cable with the connector pads facing towards the board. Notice that the primary 30 pin connector has an extension which is supplied with the LCD (both the extension cable and the extender clips board, are very delicate and easily broken).  Use caution.

   

Fabulous... now I can have my PineA64 board with me on-the-go, fits great in my man bag... and you know what, it looks great too, right Emily ?
