ChipDeck Mk1: Raspberry Pi 500+ cyberdeck build, looking for feedback

This is ChipDeck Mk1, a Raspberry Pi 500+ build inside a lime-green Nanuk 910 case. It has a 10.1-inch display in the lid, battery power, 3D-printed internal panels, RGB lighting, and a lot of still-questionable wiring/layout decisions.

I’d estimate around 80-120 active hours of CAD, printing, wiring, troubleshooting, and redesign, plus 200+ passive hours from print time, waiting on parts, and reworking ideas. Cost is probably around £350-£600 / $450-$750, depending how honestly I count failed prints, extra connectors, and “wrong part” purchases.

Big things I’m still working through:

The hinge/display cable routing is still rough and I’d love advice there.

The Pi 500+ needs a cleaner/flush final mount.

Cable management needs improvement.

Airflow is not fully solved yet.

Next major upgrade is solidifying WLED on a XIAO ESP32 for status lighting and maybe Ambilight-style screen color matching.

It is still prototype-grade, but it finally feels alive. I’d really appreciate constructive criticism on the hinge area, wiring, airflow, power safety, and layout before I lock in the next version.
