Internal RPi Retaining Clip for Printrbot Simple Metal Gen1

Description

There'S Probably Not A Lot Of People Who Might Need This, Especially Since The Gen1 Printrbot Is No More, But I Was Tired Of [Vinnivg](Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Vinnievg/About)'S Wonderfully Small "[A Very Compact Raspberry Pi B+ And Pi 2 Case](Http://Www.Thingiverse.Com/Thing:396917)" Slipping Out From Underneath My Printrbot Simple Metal Everytime I Moved It, And Since I Am Getting It Ready To Sell It, I Wanted The New Owner To Have The Best Experience Possible, So I Slapped This Retaining Clip Together In Openscad To Keep The Incredibly Slim Case Snug Inside. Combined With My Hack To Swap The Printrboard 180-Degrees (Putting The Micro-Usb Port Inside The Base) And Adding A 2.1A 5V Supply (From An Old Mini-Usb Car Charger That I Didn'T Need Anymore — Who Uses Mini-Usb ?) It Makes This Fully-Featured Printer With Octoprint, Auto-Upload Youtube Timelapses, Built-In Slicer (For Emergencies) Entirely Self-Contained Other Than The Powersupply (Yes, I'Ve Even Ran It From A Car Cigarette Lighter Before :) It'S So Clean, It Will Break My Heart To See It Go, But Hopefully To A Wonderful New Home. If You Want To Clean Up Your Octopi-Outfitted Printrbot Simple Metal, Grab This Clip, And Vinnieg'S Case, And Give It A Whirl. Enjoy ! -=Dave
