History
2026-01-04: case - today I reprinted the case (still in PLA), but scaled the parts up to 101%. That worked nicely. Before the case was too tight.
2025-11-22: print of the case bottom failed, it curled up a bit on one side, making it too tight for the Base Duo and Pi 5 to fit into it.
2025-11-22: I mounted the active cooler onto the Pi 5. I assembled the NVME Base Duo, and mounted the 2 Samsung SSDs on it.
2025-11-22: I started printing a case bottom, see "Case for Raspberry Pi 5 With Pimoroni NVMe Base Duo" in the Links section.
