The USB cable is fixed in the back panel and holds the D1mini. If you have a different cable, you can modify the blender file and create your custom back panel. Or you can use a file and hot glue to improvise this part.
I used a wire wrapping tool to attach the wires, instead of soldering, in case I want to re use the parts in other projects.
The Schematics
The Nokia 5110 module is connected to the D1mini via SPI.
The RTC module is connected via I2C.
This means that you can extend this project with more sensors via I2C, but not much else.
D0 is empty, to support deepsleep if you want to (connect with RST to enable the wakeup signal).

The Code
The code is in my github repository:

The 3D Print
The 3D print consists of 3 parts. You can print each part without support. The front and back panel can be printed with the outside facing up, if your 3D printer supports briding of a few cm. I prefer it this way as it provides better surface finish on the outside.
