Lenovo Tiny PC Mount

I have a Lenovo Tiny PC M600 Series that I wasn’t sure what to do with. It is a Pentium based CPU so not the best to use for very much. I have my Desktop PC on the other side of the room behind me when I am at my electronics bench. I’ve been wanting to put something over on the bench for awhile. I had various thoughts of using a Pi4 or something, but they are at such a premium right now I feel very doubtful I’ll get my hands on another one. They are not worth what they are currently selling for, if the Pentium Tiny doesn’t work out, I could buy an i5 Tiny for the same as the Pi4 these days.

Lenovo has made VESA Mount adapters for the Tiny, but I decided to check for a 3d printed mount design. I found a couple, but most were not what I was looking for. I picked one out that was close, but after taking measurements for some reason it was too narrow. All Lenovo Tiny’s I have had over the years have had the same dimensions.. So I find that odd.

I started over and came up with a one piece design that I liked, but it was a big waste of support material. I then came up with a two part design to save material and not need any supports. The first test print warped rather badly due to part of it coming loose from the bed part way through. It was good enough to test my dimensions, which needed some minor adjustments. I made a few other changes and printed it again, this time it stayed to the bed properly. The Tiny also fit it perfectly with the changes. I did make some one piece designs that take minimal support material as well. Since we had another model Lenovo tiny in the office, I decided to test fit that model. It does not fit due to the placement of the Feed on the case, I had added some material to stiffen the corners and feet for the second tiny are placed closer to the case edges. I figure I will modify the designs to accept either model before I call it finished.

Today I installed the M600 on my workbench with the Two Piece mount.
