    Default computer in a box with pi

    Hello handy people.
    I want to build my children a computer in a box. Think of a jewellery box style, the size of a shoe box.
    Need the lid to open and stay open at different angles.
    I think something like this would work.
    Anyone know of a shop in Australia that would stock \ sell something like this ?
    Thanks and have a great day.

    Do you mean the box, or the hinge?

    If hinge, yes.

    If box, there is an entire subculture of DIY timber PC boxes and micro computers. There is a seething community for Raspberry Pi and Arduino encasement too

    Fitting a micro or nano PC to a timber box isn't hard, the only concern is heat!

    Are you keen to have someone make it for you?

    As a thought, this isn't too far off what enthusiast stereo groups do....

    You could try cabinet hardware suppliers like like Nover, Nikpol, Lincoln Sentry, Furnware, Wilson Bradley or Coastline Distributors.
