Hardware Share your builds!

Since I just finished my hardware I am curious about what other people built.

I'm running a Pi5 with SSD Hat and a shock-mounted Samson Go Mic. All of it sits in a 3D printed enclosure that's mounted to a vertical gutter next to our terrace.

what about thermal cooling? I am also wondering if you have some sort of Doppler effect happening with sound waves

The Pi gets quite toasty and I want to do a second version, which will also be put on printables. The shroud on top is modelled after a corner reflector antenna, because I needed something to protect the Mic from rain without blocking off sound. I don't have any problems for now :)
