Hope this model will be helpful. If you liked it please hit the [🧡 Like] button. When bulding the Retro Desktop PC Raspberry Pi case V2 by @fantasticmrda_133107 , I found that nothing holds the SD card slot which sits within the sd_card_reader_drive.stl piece . So I designed this lid to better secure it in the “drive” enclosure. No need for support; print with the top part facing down. Please note: the flexible ribbon cable is very brittle. Regardless to the top lid piece that I made, I found the original .stl to have a sharp edge on the bottom floor, which eventually caused my flexible ribbon cable to damage and snap into 2 pieces. To be on the safe side, I made a small slope at the upper edge in my design where the flexible ribbon cable gets out from. Though, it is unlikely that it will snap from the top as it is getting bent downwards to reach the MicroSD slot of the Raspberry Pi. So I highly recommend that you'd take a file and make a nice smooth slope at the edge in the original sd_card_reader_drive piece where the flexible cable gets out from. Refer to the attached picture to better understand what I mean.
