Imported from Thingiverse.

 

Combines an Arduino Uno and a breadboard in one foldable unit.

Unlike jasonwelsh's folding arduino lab it has no storage for parts and you can't keep a shield on the arduino.

That's because it is meant to be used with something like the Sidekick starter kit (that's where my breadboard came from).

There are magnets to keep it closed while carrying.

If you would like to change something, I've included SolidWorks files for the parts.

I created this thing because I needed a box that wasn't so bulky because I carry it to school everyday.

  • 14.Dec.2014:

Added new versions of two parts with holes to guide power and ground wires to the breadboard.

  • 29.Mar.2016

Added .step files so people with other CAD programs can import files more easily.

Instructions

The parts have about 0.5 mm play to allow for some inaccuracy in printing (it worked fine for me).

After printing drill the holes marked in the Arduino side for mounting the Arduino (I used 2.5 mm screws).

The magnets have to be 3mm high and 6mm diameter.

For the hinges use a 1mm wire (for instance paperclips).
