This is a 17-18'' laptop case (body + display).

You can build your own laptop based on mini-pc board or even embed flat mini-pc in it.

Minimal 3D printer bed size 22cm.

This model is optimised (originally prototype is made) for: display: ARZOPA 17.3" FHD Portable Monitor 1080p External Display

board: FIREBAT T8 Pro Plus Mini PC Intel Celeron N100 (16/512)

keyboard: Rii Mini K12 Plus 2.4 G

power supply: 5V 9V 12V Output 6x 18650 Battery UPS Uninterrupted Power Supply DIY Power Bank

hinges: Asus K52 hinges (+cut their edges)

This model is made for the project of free laptop that can use mini-ITX motherboards and display that can be connected to other sources via type-C cable.

Advices

* Use Type-C display output mini-PC, or mini-ITX board, in this case you will be able to use 18'' display (then modify display case) or it will be easier to connect 17'' display by just 1 cable.

* In case of using HDMI output-input, use low profile cable.

* You can use M2(d.2mm) screws

* Feel free to use thermal glue to fix everything well

* You can put a lot of baterries there =)

Attention!

If you will use some other display, you shall customize display case!

If you want to use some other size laptop keyboard, you can use Arduino to connect it and then you will have to modify the case roof.

Your printer may have some artifacts or print inaccuracies, so get ready to cut some plastic, etc.

If you have 50x50cm 3D printer, then better unite many parts in one (bottom, roof, or even unite bottom with walls).

Model is complicated!

Get fun! =)
