Raspberry Pi Model B Cases?

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows of a case for the Model B?

    I was wondering if the Pi can be used with it simply standing on the anti-static bag in which it was packed .

    This is not really advisable, as the outside of an anti-static bag is NOT actually anti-static!

    You would actually be better off placing it on a piece of cardboard, or buying one of these fairly cheap so called 'cases' which are basically two pieces of 'perspex' held apart with some spacing screws.

    There is probably a bit more to it than that, but you get the idea!

    Thanks for the information.  Then if the anti-static bag was turned inside out and used to cover the cardboard on which the Raspberry Pi is placed, this would give it protection from ESD.  Is that a good or acceptable result?

    It would be most appreciated and helpful if you would kindly advise further regarding protection from ESD with the acrylic or plastic commercially available cases.

     

    Thanks for your most kind help.
