LCD Enclosure on a budget! - ajsullivan - 05-31-2016

I love my pine, but I was getting fed up of having the LCD panel dangling from the acrylic enclosure. I will be purchasing the playbook case as soon as it is available but until then I decided to MacGyver one using the existing pine64 carboard box.

I used the bottom of the acrylic enclosure to give it a little bit of stability but you can do this without it. I screwed small screws into the cardboard to keep it sliding around (which is where I added the acrylic base). I cut out holes for all the ports, and then made small indentations for the LCD screen to sit in. I have used elastic bands to fix the screen.

I hope you like it, and it makes you smile, I am quite please with it! Check out the pics.
