Title. I printed a case for a friend, and I ended up wanting to have a similar case, but it didn't exist for my phone, so I ended up recreating something similar in OpenSCAD, then decided I'd probably be better off making it customizable so that it could fit, theoretically, any (current) candy-bar style phone.

TL;DR: The Good Stuff

Here are some screenshots!

It took me about 4-5 nights to get it mostly as decent as I could make it, I still don't consider myself an OpenSCAD expert by no means, but when I tried it on my phone, I was pretty satisfied!

Unfortunately, for my phone, I had to make a couple of test prints, and the print shown on video, was putting a tad too much pressure on the corners of the screen, so I ended up having to make a new print. (7 total tests during development)

Here's how the case looks with the screws onPhone in hand Volume buttons, ports


Either way, I am more than open to feedback, and you are free to contribute if you'd like!

Though it's not not Linux related, it's me trying to do my part for this community. Though the default settings are for a Fairphone 6, you can customize it to other phones as well. My hope is that, most phones that can run any form of Mobile Linux, can have a case that they can just make as many times as they want.
