his is my 3D printed and laser cut custom NAS server case !
The case is composed of a 3D printed structure that hold the laser cut parts made with acrylic.
It can fit up to an ATX motherboard (compatible w/ mATX and ITX), an ATX power supply and up to 6 3,5″ HDDs.
Plus 2 120mm fan openings on the front and 1 on the rear.
I’ve also designed a SATA backplane to facilitate cable routing (not finished yet).
To assemble the case you need:
14 M3 x19mm screws
8 6mm spacers for the side panels
some 6mm spacers for the motherboard
some M3 nuts (to maintain the spacers)
1 16mm momentary switch
Print Settings
Printer: Alfawise U30
Rafts: No

Notes:
All the parts of the frame are 3D printed in PETG with 20% infill and assembled using 14 M3 x19mm scwews.
Make sure to remove all the support material and properly clean the grooves on these parts to facilitate the fitment of the panels.

Laser cutting
All the panels are made from 3mm acrylic sheets, I’ve used 4 50cm x 40cm sheets to cut all the parts.
The 2 side panels are made from 2.5mm plexiglass.
All the parts are available as .DXF files, they should be compatible with most laser cutting machines.
