Raspberry Pi 3 B Case for shorter screws

thingiverse

I was on a mission to find a compact and robust Raspberry PI 3 case when I stumbled upon jayftee's ingenious creation at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1427797 - what a score! However, things quickly took a turn when I realized I didn't have any M2.5x20 screws lying around, and to make matters worse, they're not exactly easy to get your hands on. Undeterred, I decided to modify the case to accommodate the M2.5x16 screws that were available, and boy was it worth it! The bottom part of the case needed only a slight tweak, with the nuts being nestled a little deeper into the casing than before. On the other hand, the top part required a bit more work, as I had to beef up the screw bosses near their base to accommodate the new screws. The end result? A case that not only works perfectly with M2.5x16mm screws but is also ridiculously easy to modify to fit any screw length between 10 and 20mm - talk about a win-win!
