This case holds a Raspberry Pi (2 or 3) and the official 7" touch screen display in a convenient desktop-console format. I designed this for a video switching system, but it's perfect for any kind of control screen, status display, photo frame or any other small desktop device.
The case provides full access to the network and USB ports and it is possible to swap out the SD card, though you may need tweezers or needle-nose pliers to reach it easily. The flex ribbon will block the SD card slot, unless you get a longer flex ribbon and fold it as shown in the photos. Don't try to fold the ribbon that comes with the display. It's too delicate.
Note that you will also need a right-angle power cable to supply power to the Raspberry Pi. Power can then be supplied to the touch screen from the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins using the jumpers that came with the display.
Here are the components I used:
