Spacers between Pi and ClumsyMIDI

[appiah4]

What size and kind of spacers are good for placing between the Pi and ClumsyMIDI?

Hi again @appiah4!

You can find the one I'm using in the BOM under "Mechanical Parts":

4x M2.5 nut, 4x M2.5x11+6 standoff, 4x M2.5x5+6 standoff

The 11mm standoffs are the one between the Pi and ClumsyMIDI, the 5mm ones are the "feet" and are screwed into the longer ones through the bottom PCB. The "+6" means the standoffs have a 6mm long threaded shaft on top. The nuts are for fixing the longer standoffs on top.

If you search for M2.5x11+6 and M2.5x5+6 you should find the right ones, usually they are brass.

If you want to do your own thing, any spacers of 11mm length fitting M2.5 screws should work.

Happy building :)

Thank you, that's what I get for not reading the fine print :) I didn't realize they were listed at the bottom of the BOM, that makes sense now.

Time to order some PCBs and ICs. Woo..
