My current plan is to go with a stack of two PCBs with some pins.

I need to take measurements and figure out the mechanical constraints, then find some pins that could be used.

3D printing the connector may be a viable option. I'll create a model to see if it's even possible to meet the design rules.

3D printing could work but it would be really pushing it.

These are the only pins I've been able to find that could work
