Pibow ninja coupe raspberry pi case build

I ordered a Pibow Ninja Coupe a few days ago, and got it delivered to work this morning.
This post is full of photos, unboxing the case and assembling the case with the raspberry pi inside it!

Tools needed: a knife to open the packaging, and a flat-head screwdriver to tighten the screws at the end (and a raspberry pi to put inside the case)

Cutting along the line so that I can keep the instructions intact (if I wasn’t making a blog post, I’d have ripped it open!)

The Pibow case is made from individual sections of acrylic, looks like it has been laser cut, and each part has a thin film on it.

Stacking the layers on top of each other – the layers are marked with numbers and stack in order.

The case is complete! there is access to the GPIO, SD card slot, power, usb, hdmi, Ethernet ports, etc – without opening the case.
