Here are cases that I use when there are several HAT'S on top of the Pi.

Older "dog bone" case. Not sure if this is still available.


Newer case meant for stacked Pi's. Still available AFAIK.

Hi do you have a link where to buy the case for stacked pi?

The Geekworm is the one that I personally use. Available on Amazon and other sites. The brown color is a removeable paper protective layer to keep the acrylic from being scratched in the package.  It also comes with a bunch of standoffs.

@hifinet do you use this case with your RPi Zero W?
I'm looking at getting a Zero 2W and wondering if it would work?

If so, did you need to make some modifications to it? I.e. drill some new holes to account for the reduced width of the Zero boards compared to the 3A/3B/4B etc?

With 2W, I just leave the non GPIO side hanging. There is really no need to support it.Access to the micro USBs is very difficult when it is in the case. The power cable and OTG USB need to be installed before assembly of the case.

After Tim's rec, I have been recently using 3A+ instead of 2W. It already has a USB A port (and GPIO header), and it is  on the front side opposite the RCA jacks of ProtoDAC. Easier access. No need to get an OTG cable.
