Description
A simple desk top stock ticker with an e-ink display.
Pre-requisites
You'll need to know how to flash the Raspberry Pi OS, log in via SSH, and run basic git commands to download the software.
Hardware
This is a simple build with no soldering required, but all the components will add up to £40+.
- Raspberry Pi Zero 2 (with GPIO headers & SD card) ~£15-20
- Pimoroni Inky pHAT (black/white or black/white/red) ~£18
- Micro-USB right-angle panel mount extension (25cm max) ~£4
- 6x short M2.5 screws
- (Optional) Pimoroni LED SHIM ~£10

All 3 parts print without supports. You'll need a translucent filament if you're adding the LEDs. I used matte black PLA for the base/bezel and translucent PETG for the back.
V2 Update
There's now a 2 part version of this model. It has smoother corners, feels a bit more solid, and requires fewer screws. However, it does require supports around the bezel so it's much harder to get a clean print.
V3 Update
I ended up redesigning the case from scratch here. I used all the same hardware so it's fully compatible with this project.
