Is it possible to print this case?
May 15, 2014 08:27PM
Hello,

I`ve designed a case for nexus 5 and it`s got too many details so i was wondering if it`s possible to print it in a Prusa i3. Actually, I think the letters will be impossible to print but i can just print the case without it.

If you think it`s possible then what supports/configs should i use?

I included the .stl and a picture of the case. It goes with several gears but these i won`t have problem printing.

Thanks,

It is possible in terms of level of detail, but you would need perfectly configured support material because the back is on top of the (screw holes?). The small letters probably would not print well, although with a .25mm nozzle they might be passable, and the part of the side that curls over on the top would be fragile and hard to print.
Give it a try though! And be sure to post pictures!
