This is my first approach to make a case for Beagle Board. I used a plastic one that fits almost perfect, needed basically a 12 mm. spacer to height adjust. The box would be like this picture:

And the BB would fit, inside the box, more or less like that:

I still need consider some points:

  • Even with an "natural" exhaust ventilation (no fan, not visible in picture) the heat influence on "heavy" use.
  • Check all connectors and see if they fit properly.

I hope for the next weeks post more about this box and great ideas with Beagle Board.

Stay tuned!
