<p>This is a case project for a Raspberry Pi 4, with a Low Profile Ice Tower Cooler (amazon # B07ZV1LLWK), and has an optional mount of a .9" OLED screen (amazon # B0833PF7ML).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/224942/rich_content/a53ebdf9-f2de-4cfc-b3e6-1193f5ae479f/img_20220612_142408120.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2270bd463a-61ca-45b7-b31e-ec64730a25b4%22%2C%22w%22%3A4160%2C%22h%22%3A3120%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Notice the orientation of the standoffs and how they screw into the screen mount.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The OLED is mounted to the bracket with some m2 x 6mm screws (amazon # B07YS8NR4J). m2.5 screws WILL NOT fit.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/224942/rich_content/30beccc5-bb28-4f0b-8ed3-495ee219907a/img_20220612_142452369.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22237953ca-a604-45a7-8456-d1790d4e3354%22%2C%22w%22%3A4160%2C%22h%22%3A3120%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I recommend using 10cm jumper wires to connect the OLED to the PI's GPIO. The OLEDs come with some much longer wires that are a cable management nightmare in a case this small.&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/224942/rich_content/50c669b0-8daf-4ac4-9d79-6d8b1e624753/img_20220612_175451743.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22a3497f87-2ab7-48b3-99e6-8547d3d94536%22%2C%22w%22%3A4160%2C%22h%22%3A3120%7D"></figure><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/224942/rich_content/f1ac1716-f034-4709-91f7-791f51598a64/img_20220612_171943338.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22f49a732c-8b22-4314-8098-60e52de5553a%22%2C%22w%22%3A4160%2C%22h%22%3A3120%7D"></figure><p>There is an optional build that allows for some multi-color stripes to adorn the SD and USB sides of the case. These can be printed on a regular single color printer. There are three individual files and you just print them one at a time, changing the filament between each print. Print them in the order they are numbers - STRIPE1 first, change the color, STRIPE2 second, change the color, STRIPE3 third. STRIPE3 is actually the sides of the case, with recesses cut into them to make clearance for the stripes.&nbsp;</p><p>DO NOT use support when slicing these parts.&nbsp;</p><p>DO center each part when you pull it into your slicer.</p><p>I find the enabling Z hop and setting it to at least 1mm makes these stripes turn out cleaner and sharper.&nbsp;</p><p>I have uploaded a practice/color test print for the stripes on this case. The color thicknesses and the width of the outline stripes on this test print match the stripes on this case and future cases I upload will probably use similar parameters.</p><p>https://www.printables.com/model/224975-three-color-raspberry-pi-test-print-version-2</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This case is intended to be assembled with m3 x 8mm screws. Assembling all of my cases will work much better if you tap the holes before assembling. I use a tap set similar to amazon # B077HTXVR1 . The screen mount holes where it attaches to the Ice Tower brackets should be tapped with an m2.5 (amazon # B07KT3SGRG). You can just screw the screws into the printed parts, but they tend to strip. Tapping the holes makes for a much better assembly that can be disassembled and reassemble multiple times without stripping and screw holes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There are optional SVG files for lasercutting the top, the HDMI side and the GPIO side of the case. These parts are all interchangeable. You can print or laser cut whichever sides you wish.</p><p><br>If you don't have access to a lasercutter, I might be able to help you get laser cut sides. I sell full cases through my Etsy store, I would be happy to sell just the lasercut parts (as well as the oddball m2 screws and shorter jumper wires).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
