Gnat-Stats desktop case

thingiverse

I wanted to create a Gnat-Stats monitor but wasn't happy with the lack of case options so I modified an existing item to fit my needs. This is designed for a 0.96" OLED and a generic Arduino Pro Micro. EDIT: I've added a pair of magnetic "feet" that slip onto the bottom of the case. These are a bit snug, and will likely need to be removed with pliers, but are technically removable. The magnets are 5mm x 1mm (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C5HXR2X) and are press-fit. I was able to get them in by using a 1/4" punch with a jeweler's hammer, on a hard flat surface. The feet do need support. Print them flat and use "normal" and "everywhere" settings. If you use default Cura options, it's easy to remove them by using a small precision flathead (I used a 1.6 mm) between the foot and the support. Just push and rock, and the support should pop right out as you go. Notes: The display doesn't align with the existing stand-offs but they will still space it at the correct distance from the front panel. Rather than waste time modifying this aspect, I simply aligned the screen, with the protective plastic still in place, and used duct-tape to keep it in position. I added hot glue from the back, then removed the duct-tape and protective cover once the glue cooled. If you are using the slot retention, note that the back six pins are blocked on each side (4-9 and A1-10). If you are using this for the same purpose as me, this isn't an issue. If this is a problem, you can remove the slot, via something like TinkerCAD, to expose the remaining pins. The support I placed below the board clears all pins, in regards to solder points, and the rear cover is designed to support the increased height if you choose to remove the slot and secure the board using double-sided tape instead.
