RSS/AtomA Raspberry Pi 5 VT100 Cyberdeck build - Part 3 - Assembly
I designed and uploaded some basic frames to hold the NVME base and speaker to printables.com. Like everything with this build, fitting these into the case was extremely fiddly.
Some bigger holes and deeper cutouts would be a good improvement for future designs. In the end, I got it all to fit and just need a couple of 90 degree USB adapters to hookup the external USB ports (ordered).
The finished result:
Testing revealed the screen cable had come loose again - an easy fix. I also learned during design that the NVME base is slightly larger then the PI5, which is I assume why it can accept a normal 2280 size NVME drive when other hats cannot. This caused a bit of confusion when it wouldn’t fit in a frame built around dimensions of just the Pi5.
The term to search for is: mechanical drawing.
When placed side by side, the difference in size between frames is barely noticeable, so extruding a label into the frame was also a good idea.
