Raspberry PI Zero WH with 3.5" touch screen case (Should fit Zero 2)
thingiverse
This is my remix of a Raspberry PI Zero WH case. This work was made from scratch but the idea was based on this case: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3952272 I designed it with the following enhancement form the design I saw on Thingiverse. 1. Place put put the touch screen pointer device so I don't loose it. 2. A back mount with holes to mount it on either side or on top of an extrusion. 3. A taller case so I could route the wires even with the USB connector is longer. 4. Exit hole in the back to help hide the wires better. 5. Added brackets to mount case in the front of an extrusion. I have not printed and tested these but if they don't fit I can easily adjust them. 6. Added mount points inside to align with the PCB holes of the Raspberry PI Zero W board. 7. Added supports to sit just behind touch screen to hold it in place firmly. 8. Made cover holes and case holes to easily put it in with M3 bolts. 9. Made all mounting holes to use with 5mm bolts but smaller bolts with washers should work too. I designed it all to be printed while standing up with-out the need for supports. The default orientation of the body STL files is not ideal but I've not found a way yet to rotate it for better default placement. Just sit it on its bottom and it should print great. There should be plenty of place to route the USB cable in and even put two in if needed. I used this connector for my installation since it would require two cable. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FY9Z9GD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 My PI version is this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B2SK3RK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And here is my touch screen but they have many suppliers of a similar screen. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CNJVG8K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 One important note. To install it DON'T leave the memory card in the PI. Remove it before installation and then use the slot on the side to re-insert it. I was thinking of adding a slot going down from the top to allow space for the card but I found it fairly easy to put the car in and out. To make it easier to get the card out I use a small pair of needle nose pliers. Good printing! <br> <b>November 21st 2021 Update:</b> Someone indicates that I never uploaded the latest case that includes the side mount points. I've now uploaded and labeled it as PIZero_Case_body_V1.1.stl. This version is needed to use the brackets and to side mount it. Sorry for the mistake. This should also fit the Zero 2 which will support Octoprint or Klipper with a camera. I'm upgrading my Zeros as soon as I can get my hands on some Zero 2s.
