Board-specific enclosures for Arduino & Raspberry Pi
Specifically targeting the Arduino and Raspberry Pi bareboard computers, Hammond Electronics has announced the 1593HAMEGG enclosures. Designed in response to user feedback, the enclosures offer an alternative to traditional base and lid designs where the bareboard is mounted inside an enclosure. Instead, the board is screwed into moulded studs located on the top of an egg-shaped base.
