A laser cut case for the Raspberry Pi Camera HDMI extension kit designed by Petit Studio. https://www.tindie.com/products/freto/pi-camera-hdmi-cable-extension/
Designed to be cut on 3mm acrylic. The base layer has holes compatible with toy block tape as this is what I was using to mount the camera on a surface, but a second solid layer could be cut instead if a solid base is desired.
It is very hard to accommodate the ribbon cable between the boards that has been given slack to avoid strain on the connectors. One flaw in my design is that neither board is firmly captured by the case, so the first time I pulled out the HDMI connection, the camera popped off the Sunny connector as the camera had not been affixed to the camera board (it was easily fixed without damage). The case could be redesigned for 2mm acrylic to get a layer that surrounds the camera board tightly to eliminate this problem.
You will need four M3 x 25mm screws and nuts for assembly.
