Raspberry Pi Switch Box

A box for particular Raspberry Pi peripherals. Includes an integrated switch lever, a section for a piezoelectric buzzer, and mounts for metal switch contacts and a circuit board with an LED to indicate power status of the Pi. A switch consisting of the lever, mounts for contacts, and metal strips to be provided is intended to be used to send a signal to shutdown the Pi. Design is modeled after a CanaKit Raspberry Pi case, with a gap provided between base and lid to allow leading wires out of the case.

To construct the switch, a strip of metal provided with two holes should be attached to the cantilevered portion of the lid, with the posts on the portion extending through the metal. Another strip of metal with holes on its ends should be attached to extend across the end of the cantilevered portion with posts extending therethrough such that pressing the cantilevered portion will bring the two pieces of metal into contact. The posts may be melted or glue applied thereto to hold the
