Hey there, wonderful people!

Say goodbye to boring gift card giving with this snazzy folding case!  The Contrarian Card Case folds together to neatly encapsulate one or more cards of Standard Gift Card Size to make giving such things a little more interesting.  Of course, gift cards are really just standard credit card sized cards, so this case probably has a range of uses :P

There are two versions of this case, Long and Wide, which differ in edge that contains the hinge.  The main benefit of the Wide version of the Long is that it will fit on a smaller printer like a Prusa Mini!


 Designs

There are a couple of versions of the case provided:

* Wide with Hexagons

* Wide with Christmas trees

* Long with Hexagons

* Wide with solid lid and base

* Long with solid lid and base


Those last two on the list, the solid ones, are included to make it easy to customise your own!  Just load it up into your favourite CAD software and start cutting out designs!



Printing Tips

This is an articulated model, so make sure your first layer is nice and neat and that there aren't any printing artifacts like stringing or overextrusion that might cause binding in moving parts!

The Contrarian Card Cases print open, outside-down, like so:


Print Dimensions

The Long version of the case is 205mm x 67mm on the printer bed and is 7mm tall.

The Wide version of the case is 140mm x 97mm on the printer bed and is 7mm tall.

Sorry I stole your color combo of the red & green and printed one.

FYI - You got a nice callout on TMS podcast for this model.

Can you make a version with less hexagons? I printed one but the hexagons fell off one by one because the walls were too thin. I use a .5mm nozzle and .28mm height.
