Ultra-slim Raspberry Pi Zero W case and GoPro-style Pi Mount

Included here are Raspberry Pi Zero W case front and back, as well as GoPro style mounting arm with snap-fit brackets to securely hold the Pi Zero W case. Pictured in the first photo, are also a Raspberry Pi Zero W camera swivel mount, found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2504951 and GoPro Mount arms & base found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2194278

The Pi Zero W case is based upon a very slick Pi Zero (rev 1.1 I think) case where the Pi Zero W has the same board form factor, but has a somewhat different component layout which matters here because the case is so thin, and has a cutout meant to make it possible to utilize a heatsink on the IC, which was repositioned on the Zero W, along with some components that were vertically taller on the newer board.

The mounting arm is based upon an arm from the excellent Modular GoPro-style mounting system, with tabs added to accommodate the Pi Zero W case.

Notes:

You'll want to rotate the pieces to put the outer face of each case half against the print bed, and lay the mounting arm so the long edge is down, and Pi case tabs up.

Post-Printing

Seat the Pi Zero W in the back half of the case. Press-fit the front of the case, first at top, then bottom, until it clicks into place. If you're using the GoPro-style mounting bracket, press the assembled case against the arm, between the mounting tabs, applying medium pressure at top and bottom of the pi, until it clicks into place.

It's recommended that you install a Pi heatsink, only after you've installed the Pi in the case, in order to assure proper alignment.
