In this project, we're going to make a DIY monitor using an 5 inch HDMI touch screen and a 3D printed enclosure.

2. 3D printer.
3. 5 Inch 800*480 HDMI Resistive Touch Screen LCD Display for Raspberry Pi 2/3/B+
4. HDMI cable with MiniHDMI cable or a MiniHDMI converter.
5. A bracket, you can just design it and print it by 3D printer or make it by yourself.
6. M3 screw X 4
