PIvena Assembly Instructions (B+)

Before start building you will need to get all your parts together.

You can source these parts yourself or buy the kit on Etsy:

• A set of lasercut 1/8″ baltic birch plywood parts (Thingiverse)
• A set of 3D printed parts (Thingiverse)
• (36) – 5/16″ length 4-40 screws
• (11) – 1/2″ length 4-40 screws
• (2) additional 1/2″ screws are included in the Model B+ kit
• (4) – 5/8″ length 4-40 screws
• (6) – 4-40 nuts
• (2) additional nuts are included in the Model B+ kit.
• (3) – 1″ length standoffs
• (4) – 1/4″ length unthreaded standoffs
• (1) – micro usb cable
• (1) – 2.1mm barrel jack
• (1) – 2.1mm barrel connector for the LCD screen power connection

These are needed but not included in the hardware kit:

• (1) – 5V 2A power supply with a 2.1mm barrel connector (Adafruit)
• (1) – HDMI cable. I used a 1ft flat cable from (meritline) but you can use whatever you like.
• (1) – Raspberry PI model B +
• (1) – 7″ HDMI LCD (Adafruit) or (Amazon)

Step 2: Assemble the Base

1. Get the base plate, (4) 5/16″ screws, (4) 3D printed corners
2. Set the base plate down in the orientation shown in the first picture.
3. Insert one of the 5/16″ screws from the bottom side of the base plate in a corner hole
4. Screw it into the bottom of the 3D printed corner piece 1.NOTE: the bottom of the 3D printed corner is flat, while the top has a bump up that is used to align the top pieces.
5. Repeat for the remaining 3 corners

Step 3: Right Side

1. Grab the side plate (has a large rectangle cut out with a step in the top), (3) 5/16″ screws
2. Slide the side plate between the 2 3D printed corners.
   1. If it isn’t fitting on nicely you may need to rotate the 3D printed corners slightly.
3. Use (3) 5/16″ screws to secure the side plate to the 3D printed corners.
