Modular case for Raspberry Pi 5 + miscellaneous HATs

I don't have the MacArthur HAT screws on hand, so I am not sure about the lenght.

If you use them to secure the holding bracket + base + raspberry bundle... are they too long?

Not they are actually really short, they can only accommodate maybe mounting to a 1-2mm something. So the changes that I needed to do to get it working for me were:
  1. Fuse the base and the holding bracket in one print, allows short screw to hold the PI
  2. Raise the mounting points of the raspberry pi in the base from 1mm to 3mm, that helps to align with the rest of the spacers.
  3. Make some adjustments so that I can remove the SD Card and also removed the bottom part of the holes of the usb-c, hdmi ports because it didn't fit. The base print has a "fence" around it and it was hitting that.

This is how it looks with pictures. For me this way, is good enough, it works for what I want.
