Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and ZeroCam Case

I created this design to fill a need for a printed case for the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and the ZeroCam camera module. This Pi enclosure case also incorporates to a GoPro mount so you could use it with similar accessories. It's perfect to place next to, or attach to a 3D Printer and use with OctoPrint.

UPDATE - 7th January 2023

Added the following additional Front Cases

1.RaspberryPiZero2-ZeroCam_Case-Front-SM-IO.stl - Small cut-out for IO Headers 2.RaspberryPiZero2-ZeroCam_Case-Front-LG-IO.stl - Large cut-out for IO Headers 3.RaspberryPiZero2-ZeroCam_Case-Front-Pi-Logo.stl - Raspberry Pi logo for vent

UPDATE - 3rd September 2022 Version 1.1 (Files with v1-1) Change Log: Improved 'lip' between front and back halves makes it a more secure fit

Compatibility:

This Pi case design has been tested with only the following devices. It should work with the original Zero, but please let me know if you have tried it with a different model. The camera I used is a PiHut ZeroCam. If there are other similar camera modules with different dimension, let me know so I can accommodate for it.

• Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W
• PiHut ZeroCam - Camera for Raspberry Pi Zero

Features

• Houses Raspberry Pi Zero and the ZeroCam Camera
• Snap-fit screw-less case in two parts using holes in PCB
• Uses compatible GoPro mount. Should also work with Module Mounting System by HyVye.
• Ventilation front back and sides
• Adequate space for heatsink for Raspberry Pi Zero 2 14mm x 14mm x 6mm
• High resolution STL mesh

If anyone finds any problems (dimensionally or otherwise) post them up so I can get the fix model.

Mounts for 3D Printer

If you are using this case and your Raspberry Pi for Octoprint, you might like to check-out these 3D printer mounts:

Ender 3 S1 pro handle with GoPro Mount for OctoPrint | Thingiverse 
Ender 3 Mount for Camera with GoPro mount | Thingiverse 
Ender 3 / v2 / pro GoPro Rail Mount | Thingiverse |
Ender 3 V2 Gopro Rail Mout | Thingiverse
Ender 3 Rail Camera Mount | Thingiverse

Instructions

• Print the Front and Back case halves
• Optional: recommend 5mm Brim
• Assembly
  • Place the Pi, with Camera module attached, in the case front half.
  • Align PCB holes with the print standoffs.
  • Gently press the Camera housing into the space provided so it just protrudes out-of-the front of the case
  • Place the back half over the front, being careful to position the Pi ports in the case holes provided
  • The camera cable will need to bend to fit inside the case
  • Press the two halves together until they snap-fit together

Recommendations

• For Cura Slicer, enable Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion Value= -0.2

(The negative value (-) will help prevent 'Elephant Foot' on the front face and make a better fit around the mount)
