Still needs some design corrections because I just didn't know how to properly do 3D print and industrial design but it works!

Amazingly cool! Thanks for sharing!

Heat pipes and fans for cooling? Does the exhaust go out of the wrist area?

So that's a problem at the moment. I am using Orange pi 5 plus which is an arm processor and it doesn't get hot by default, plus there's a fan and heat sink on it, so I didn't put any exhaust holes for aesthetics, but now it turns on the fan every a few minutes for a minute because it gets too hot in there plus the ssd nvme is generating a lot of heat. it's running in about 58°c which is alright but I'm planning to add a small fan and some exhaust holes for the next version.
