Here's where I am with this project: I won't have access to the workshop power tools for at least a month. So for now my rig still sits mostly naked in a makeshift bench testing tray.
Also, I have not been able to get my recently acquired HDPLEX flexible silicon riser, so I have to go back to using the 5cm Sintech riser and with the card oriented in the other direction.
So because of that, I am reverting my design a bit, by taking from what I've attempted with the Mini LP and reusing and cannibalizing already-made parts for that case, since it wasn't updated in a long time. Effectively, it will share elements with the Mini LP but still at larger dimensions to support full-height cards at any orientation.
UPDATE: I salvaged the motherboard tray I made for the old design, just snapped off the rear side that would no longer be of use.
Placed on top of the components just to show how the openings line up.
The sides aren't perfectly straight, so some filing down of the edges is required.
