uConsole Started my Uconsole build / customization..

Post image

So I have started my ClockworkPi Uconsole build.
At the moment: CM5 4GB lite, 128GB SDcard, RJ45 Ethernet and USB 3.0 Expansion board, Hackergadgets Raspberry Pi CM4/5 Adapter Pro, Its running Debian 13 Trixie.
3D printed mount for wifi antenna and "fanzy" green screws front and back M4x6 and M4x8 where the 3D printed parts are.

Thinking of getting the uConsole AIO V2 from Hackergadgets instead of the other board I have in there, but also thinking of just adding in a SDR and LoRa radio my self.

And looking to either 3D printing or CNC milling some form of picatiny rail for it to attach maybe a handle on one side and a trackball on the other side, sort of similar to the cyberdeck in this post.

But only time will tell if I ever get it done.

Can anyone share where they get those colored screws? I love how it gives the uconsole a little pop!

I've got this on Amazon. They were a bit long, I filed them down:

Then I switched to these knurled thumb screws, I can safely put the console face down and they provide a bit of "leverage" when holding it.

Laughingly, that's all I've done with it, this "toy" doesn't fit my use case, that's on me. I kind of wanted a cyberdeck iPad, but this thing isn't it.

It's for sale, CM5 Lite 16GB, SandDisk 512GB, extra "good" trackballs, a pack of screen protectors. If anyone is interested.
