Well, this is more of a experimental test of the printing time, material consumed, and cost for the current alpha Raspberry Pi.

I know this is an alpha and will likely change, I believe their goal is around a credit card size. So, that will affect printing time, material consumed, and cost of the released version. I DO NOT HAVE AN ALPHA RASPBERRY PI, so I took some general guesses on the actual size and locations of the USB, power, etc... by measures a computer motherboard's dual USB and scaling that to the known pictures. Side A took 1 hour and 5 mins, while Side B took 34 mins. Total time of 1 hour and 39mins. Total material consumed was 20 grams and at $.05 US dollars it works out to be $1 US dollars total. Now, if the Raspberry Pi team delivers a small version that cost will be reduced.
I tried to implement a few design features such as the internal retention clip, internal standoffs, internal sliding rails(So, Side B is contained in 5 DOF, lea
