For every project I create, I often make a corresponding YouTube video. Sometimes, there might be more than one video for a single project. You can find these videos in this section.

In Early February 2025 I started work on my own Raspberry Pi 10” Mini-Rack. In this part 2 of the mini-rack project, we will finish the design with the Pi Tray, Top Panel and Front Cluster Panel.


Pi Tray

The Pi tray holds the Raspberry Pi in place with 4x M2.5 nuts and bolts. There are two versions of the Pi Tray, one for the Raspberry Pi 4 and one for the Raspberry Pi 2,3 & 5 (the Ethernet connector is swapped top to bottom). The Pi Tray is designed to be mounted on the front cluster panel.


STL files

To keep all the project files in one place - I’ve update the original Mini-Rack Project Page with the new STL files for the Pi Tray and the Top Panel. You can download them from there.
