Tronxy X5 Pi Mount (Customizable)

thingiverse

This is just another 2020 extrusion mount for the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3. It's a straightforward design created using FreeCAD to complement my Tronxy X5 printer enhancements. There are probably more efficient solutions out there, but this one works perfectly for me. The Raspberry Pi can be mounted face up or face down using M2 screws and nuts. If you're missing those screws like I was, simply use two or three cable ties to secure the board. When mounted on top, a micro USB cable cannot be used to power the board. This is intentional since it would point inward, but I already power my pi via ATX supply, so I power it through GPIO pin array instead. This mount was originally designed for the Raspberry Pi 3, but the version 2 should fit just as well. The first Pi has an SD slot that may not fit when mounted on top due to the stabilizer, but I wouldn't recommend using a Pi1 with Octo-Print anyway. Uploading gcode files takes ages and booting up and using the camera is quite slow. As always, the FreeCAD source file is included, so you can easily make any changes you want. Happy printing!
