Raspberry Pi 4 Modular Radial Stacking Cluster Array

thingiverse

This is a remix of my stacking Raspberry Pi 4 Modular Stacking Cluster Case. I've taken the clusters to new heights by arranging the Pis in a radial array of 10 per layer. The Pis are arranged with the SD cards on the outside for easy access to swap corrupted images, and all Ethernet ports are positioned towards the center column for better cable management. As before, you can add as many or as few layers as you choose. I've rendered an array of 30 Pis here, but you can go as high as you want. To do this, simply print out the Middle Section along with the Large and Small X braces in sets of 10, however many you need. Then, print one set each of the bottom and top. The large and small X braces hold each stack of Pis securely to its neighbors in the array. The inner X brace is essentially an alignment pin, while the outer X braces will require a slight bending to snap into position and should stay put on their own. Whether or not to glue them is up to you. If you decide to build this, I highly recommend securing the entire contraption to a sheet of plywood so it can be moved without falling apart. Also, if you want to print this in a reasonable time, start your prints now rather than later.
