I have a "rainbow" case from eleduino (http://www.eleduino.com/Rainbow-Case-for-Raspberry-pi-3-model-B-and-Raspberry-pi-2-model-B-Development-Board-p10428.html) that I wanted to put in my other Raspberry Pi. The problem is the screws for the case do not go through the Raspberry Pi mounting holes but around the outside of the case. I had to design a new mounting bracket to allow me to use the case. I wanted to use my case so I would not have the raw circuit board exposed.
I wanted to be able to screw the M3 bolts into the base and not force them in. If you use a M3 tap you will be able to create threads in the holes. That way you will be able to screw / unscrew the bolts easily. I also created a countersink for the two holes to mount the stand to a surface. That way the heads of the drywall screws sit more flush with the stand.
