Orange Pi Zero case with 40mm fan

For my current 3d-printer build I wanted to give the Orange Pi Zero a try. These little things seem to get pretty hot, so I designed a case that could utilize a spare 40mm fan. The temperature dropped from ~53°C to ~38°C at idle.

Hardware needed:

• 4x M3 x 16
• 2x M3 x 12 (length depending on the height of your fan)
• 2x M3 hex nuts
• 1x 40mm x 40mm fan

Changelog:

• 14.06.2018: As per suggestion by eco339: Added a second lid that is 5mm taller to make installation of the connectors a bit easier and to allow the use heatsinks with bigger fins. I haven't printed this lid myself, but you might need longer screws.
