Got the files and built this case for my tpi. The result was incredible. Thank you so much for sharing the files!

If I may, I'd like to suggest two updates: the top fan screw holes could be enlarged a little bit to support M4 screws, since the fan has large enough holes. Also, access to the nvmes and the sd card at the bottom is quite hard, so maybe an access port at the bottom?

Anyway, this design is beautiful, practical and elegant. Great job and thank you once again!

@geoffmartin thanks for the comment! Those are some great suggestions. If I get some time, I can try to incorporate those features. Glad it is working well for you!

I got an microsd extension then I pulled a cable through the vents on the side. It was a dirty hack but it works. Maybe you could build support for it in the case, a proper hole and a way to secure the other end, like this one for example: https://www.amazon.com/Memory-Extension-Compatible-Smartphones-Extender/dp/B0CMX7BG39
