RPi frame and Hub holder for 7" HDMI LCD

thingiverse

I acquired a 7" LCD screen from Waveshare that features mounts specifically designed to hold an RPi. However, I discovered that my RPi cannot power it directly via USB - perhaps the newer RPi3 model can handle this task. Consequently, I purchased a USB hub to drive multiple USB devices and even power up my existing RPi using its own power supply. The hub has an external power source through microUSB, which means I can still use my original RPi power adapter. This custom frame is designed to address three main objectives: protect the RPi, serve as a cable organizer, and function as a holder for the USB hub. Although it was specifically tailored to accommodate the AXAGON 4x USB3.0 HUE-S2B hub I purchased, users should be able to adjust its dimensions using OpenSCAD to suit other devices. The LCD screen comes with a built-in stand, but the hub fits neatly between its feet. Moreover, the USB-A connectors on the hub serve as a sturdy base in themselves.
