My un-enclosed SC126 SBC is often exposed to risk from short-circuits.

I have a solution, also applicable to other UK users:

The rigid clear plastic tray from this year's M&S "10 breaded tiger
prawns 140g" Christmas party food is just the right size to go
underneath, and a second could be placed upside-down, on top, with a
slot cut for the SD piggyback board. The bottom one has clearance for
the side power switch on the pcb.

Would probably also work for the 10cm back-plane with a horizontal
extension slot and board.

Such a hardship eating all those hot crisp prawns in breadcrumbs with
Sriracha sauce!

There is a proper 3d printed top and bottom

yes, but I don't have a 3D printer, and I am not aware of Maker-Spaces
with access in the North East of Scotland. My local library can get
items from Elgin library where they have a printer- I've tried the
service but it wasn't a smooth hassle-free operation. Quite difficult
because I am deaf and so many people want you to phone. Also at that
time I had to travel by bus which was slow and tedious. Luckily I
have a car now.
Besides - I like eating prawns.
