Free 3D printable case for parallella

[smatthews]

Hi everyone,

I'm a CS professor that taught a parallel computing course with the Parallella last semester. As part of the prep for my course, I co-designed some case files that all my students used. You can access the files from Thingiverse at this link:

The students used the case all of last semester and reported no issues with cooling. One of the nice things about the case are the connectors -- using them, you can create a cluster of parallellas that can be built horizontally or vertically. I demo'd this cluster and case design at SIGCSE'15 back in March.

Enjoy!

Also a link to your cluster setup guide for students which I used at the beginning of setting up my cluster and found very helpful!



Thanks!

Thank you for posting that link, and I'm thrilled that you found it helpful!

The linked PDF is the original tutorial I created last November for my students. I recently transcribed that tutorial along with the bulk of my teaching materials related to Parallella at . You can access the transcribed tutorial at: .

Other users may find the single-node setup tutorial that I wrote useful. The transcribed tutorial can be accessed at: . The original tutorial I wrote last October can be found at: .
