PeppyPlayer – Modern 3D-Printed Desktop Radio

PeppyPlayer "Klee Edition" – Modern 3D-Printed Desktop Radio

Transform your Raspberry Pi into a high-end internet radio! This housing is a complete redesign inspired by the classic wooden PeppyPlayer, but fully optimized for 3D printing (perfected on the Creality K1C or Bambu A1).

This version is designed specifically for the powerful PeppyPlayer Klee Edition, featuring a beautiful interface on a 5-inch touch display.

🛠 Improvements in the Final Version:

Front-Facing Power Switch: Integrated 12V hardware switch on the front panel. While the Pi handles the software shutdown via the touchscreen, this switch ensures the entire unit is safely disconnected from power.

Modular Component Tray: The Pi and DAC are mounted on a dedicated slide-in tray. This makes assembly much easier and allows for quick SD card access without disassembling the entire unit.

Customizable Aesthetics: Sleek, modern lines that translate the classic "Radio Look" into a printable format. Easily customize the color scheme to match your interior.
