A wall-mounting and desk-stand case for the Pimoroni Inky Impression 7-colour e-ink display and Raspberry Pi Zero

Print instructions

This is a wall-mounting and desk-stand case for the Pimoroni Inky Impression 7-colour e-ink display. I wanted to make a simple protective case for the display and a Raspberry Pi Zero W which had the following features:

• A clean front with no visible fixings and a symmetrical border around the image area
• No pressure applied to the fragile glass screen of the Inky Impression
• Access to the 4 buttons on the Inky Impression board
• Access to the breakout connector on the Inky Impression board
• Simple wall-mounting
• Optional desk stand

Printing

Print the following parts:

• 1 x inky-impression-case-frame.stl
• 1 x inky-impression-case-backplane.stl
• 4 x inky-impression-case-button.stl

And, depending on whether or not you are using threaded inserts, either:

• 1 x inky-impression-case-rearpanel.stl (with inserts)

• 1 x inky-impression-case-rearpanel-no-inserts.stl (without inserts)

There is also an optional desk stand that clips into the keyholes on the rear panel:

• [OPTIONAL: 1 x inky-impression-case-stand.stl]

The design is optimised for a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.2mm layer height with 20% infill. Using a concentric pattern on the bottom layer gives a nice finish to the frame.

You will also need:

• 4 x M2.5 bolts, 6mm long (you can use the ones supplied with the Inky Impression)
• 4 x M2.5 countersunk bolts, 6mm long
• [OPTIONAL: 4 x M2.5 threaded inserts - brass heat-set type, external diameter 3.5mm, length 4-6mm]
