Description

A Raspberry Pi 5 case custom designed for this stack featured in Jeff Geerling's video:

Features

VESA 75x75 mm mounting holes on the bottom of the case
- Easily mount the case to the back of a TV, monitor or a wall
- For a space efficient mounting solution, try my VESA to DIN Rail adapter
Hexagonal holes pattern for plenty of ventilation
Screwless mounting of the Pi stack
- No need to take it apart! Just slot the bottom of the NVMe base into the indentation in the bottom of the case and put on the top
- The Pi stack will be held in place by the four stalactites positioned over the PoE HAT's screws

Parts needed

2x M3 hex socket screws (DIN 912)
- Any length from 12 mm to 25 mm will work. I used 20 mm myself
2x M3 threaded heat set inserts
- The ones I used were 3 mm long

Notes

The print shown in the photos was printed at 0.2mm layer height using Creality white PETG on a Bambu Lab P1S

Awesome case, printed great but I ran into a slight issue... Any plans to make a version compatible with the Pimoroni Duo NVMe base? Didn't realize it was a bit taller than the single... :( (Or would you mind sharing the design file so I could extend the bottom?)

Thanks! I only have the original (single) NVMe Base, but feel free to adapt the model to the Duo. I designed the case in Fusion 360, here's the file: https://mega.nz/file/uE92VRTA#pLxOxIiYlSvERU1KN9H2sqmnb4ReBdxtYFUIwOTeFOs Keep in mind you'll most likely need to adjust the hole/indent placement on the bottom as well to account for the extra screws

Awesome, thanks! :D I've only fiddled around with OpenSCAD and 3D Builder, but Fusion has been on my list to start learning so this should be fun.

Great! I highly recommend checking out the 3D Printing Discord's #parametric-design channel if you get stuck or want to learn how to do a particular thing. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people on there 😄
