Dremeling the case over there for micro USB just looks like garbage on such a work of art. The original one fits right in there all perfect.
Thanks!

i agree with the micro usb options, they look rough.... plus now with the Pi Zero W even the usb port is gonna be basically redundant...
i'm going down the barrel port route , picked up a pack for next to nothing
the wiring will be the same on all of these types of port/socket
interesting placement of your Pi, whats the thinking behind that

As for the pi, I was trying something new. Looks not bad really, puts all the ports right there. Originally I was hoping
I could use the onboard USB power port as the charge port to the powerboost to forgo the micro USB port all together. But I soon found out that wouldn't work. Lol
There's enough room to put an SD breakout there too. Not having the hdmi on the side leaves room for a second USB port.
I feel even with the pi zero w a USB port is still handy for a keyboard. Here's a few pics
