Untested Intel Joule case is untested.
The .OBJ files are now available to download as of this moment: 16:20:00 PST on Friday August 19th, 2016.
If anyone has an Intel Joule 570x Expansion Board and is willing to sacrifice five and a half hours on a 3D printer to test this case so I can confirm that my measurements were accurate let me know about the results.
The JouleBox should weigh in at about 32g and take approximately 5 hours and 20 minutes to print on a printer that extrudes 50mm per second.
Naturally some modifications are still needed as a case fan might be a nice addition or a way to feed ribbon cables into the enclosure for the GPIO pins. The reference heatsink Intel provides will nearly reach the top of the case so I'm wondering if there should be vents above it. There's a lot of empty volume for accessories but this case is only 97mm x 82mm x 30mm which is only about 30% wider than your standard Raspberry Pi enclosure. I was thinking about adding a compartment for a 2.5" HDD/SSD bay in an expanded design and I'm open to ideas for additional features.
