Hello.
As an evolution from my previous design of a Raspberry Pi 5 + MacArthur HAT combination case I have designed a modular case system for the Raspberry Pi 5 computer and miscellaneous stackable HATs (thank you Sailoog for your suggestion).
https://www.printables.com/model/1228296
It comprises a base, a lid and several “spacers”, each one of them with the suitable holes and adaptations for connectors and other features.
The underlying idea is to easily modify the configuration of your “stack” without printing a new case. Just remove or add the appropriate spacer.
I am very fond of the tools-free release mechanism that allows to remove the whole case from the fixed holding base using only two fingers (I like very much being able to bring it with me without unscrewing).
For the time being I have designed spacers por the Raspberry Pi 5, the Pimoroni NVMe base and the MacArthur HAT. I hope to include other spacers in the future.
