A spacious case for the NodeMCU v3 made in openSCAD. Has enough room to hold the board, plug in dupont connectors, and route the connectors to a ventilated sensor bay (eg for temperature sensor). Note: Not a snug fit! The NodeMCU will likely fall off the supports without tape or the tension of the dupont connectors to hold it in place.

NodeMCU v3 Roomy Case with Ventilated Sensor Bay

A spacious case for the NodeMCU v3 made in openSCAD. Has enough room to hold the board, plug in dupont connectors, and route the connectors to a ventilated sensor bay (eg for temperature sensor).

Note: Not a snug fit! The NodeMCU will likely fall off the supports without tape or the tension of the dupont connectors to hold it in place.

I made this case so that I could use NodeMCU v3 boards that I had as part of a wifi MQTT temperature reporting system without desoldering the DuPont connectors. Using DuPont connectors requires a few centimetres of clearance from the PCB, and the temperature sensors need to be a good distance away from the board to avoid being heated, so the case is quite bulky.

Print instructions

  • Print the main case without support
  • Print the lid with supports (not strictly required but the snap fit triangles will droop a bit otherwise)
  • I printed on an Ender 3 with PLA at 0.28mm 60mm/s 20% infill and found the results acceptable
