Generate a perfectly fitted, 3D-printable case for your Waveshare Waveshare 3.5" RPi LCD (A) Touch. Verified 85x56mm base dimensions with Below-board accommodates the Pi underneath (~10-12mm).
3.5" Pi LCD draws ~200mA total (display + backlight + touch). Heat is low-intensity and spread across the panel; no active airflow needed, but ensure the Pi beneath has its own thermal path if it runs under load.
PETG handles the combined Pi + LCD thermal envelope for typical handheld/dashboard applications. ABS extends thermal and mechanical headroom for industrial HMI installations.
The LCD sits ON TOP of the host Pi — below-board clearance must accommodate the Pi's full height + ports.
Resistive touch requires calibration per-install; provide stylus access after enclosure close OR pre-calibrate.
Pi micro-HDMI/USB/Ethernet accessibility depends on the host Pi model — verify port alignment with the chosen Pi before enclosure commit.
MicroSD slot on the host Pi is typically obscured by the LCD — plan access or pre-flash the SD card.
