This is just a simple pair of brackets I've made to hold a raspberry pi onto the side of the TinyBoy printer (Mini-fabricator).
Countersunk on the printer side for countersink M2.5 bolts.
Best printed lying on the side as in the picture to prevent weakness at the top corners.
Updated (01-Nov-2015) to include a 7mm hole for an "off" switch and a 3mm hole for a power LED.
Updated (14-Apr-2016) to include hangers for Pi B+, Pi2 and Pi3. Files required as follows:
Pi rev 2 without switch and LED: Pi_Hanger_A.stl & Pi_Hanger_B.stl
Pi rev 2 with switch and LED: Po_Hanger_A.stl and Pi_Hanger_b_with_LED__switch.stl
Pi B+, Pi2 or Pi3 without switch and LED: Pi Hanger_b+_a.stl x 2 (apologies, not manifold but prints fine anyway - I blame Sketchup)
Pi B+, Pi2 or Pi3 with switch and LED: Pi Hanger_b+_a.stl & Pi Hanger_b+_b.stl
Schematic is included for the switch and LED. I'll try to get the script uploaded when I get a chance to get it working on Jessie.
Updated (05-May-2016)
Simplified schematic and python script uploaded. I highly recommend using the switch on Pin 5 (GPIO 3) as this also allows you to wake the pi up after a shutdown by pressing the button again.
Running scripts at startup has changed somewhat in Jessie. We now need to use systemd to schedule them. I followed the guide here which allowed it to run correctly:http://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2015/10/how-to-autorun-a-python-script-on-boot-using-systemd/
