Hello, I’ll soon be the proud owner of a Fairphone 2 and I’m thinking about having a 3D printed case. Since I have access to a 3D printer, I’d like to print it myself so I was wondering if someone had some 3D models to share so I could play with and build my own. I was thinking anyway about shari…

Hi Im looking for a 3D Model of FP2. Is that part of the opensource plans of Fairphone or do i have to make my own? @douwe ? :grinning: Regards, Novski

Did you use the forum search before posting? :wink:

your nasty. yes i did. :triumph: dvl is a privat guy that doesn’t like to share, but Fairphone is a company that “could” share… so i asked explicit. I made a separate post because it has a separate question. you let me down now the second time. Don’t dear to increase…

Quoting the welcome banner: There was no personal restrictions intended. I am just applying regular forum practice.

Just remembered, @keesj also showed a picture of a 3D printed case somewhere on the forum, but I can’t find that post. I can find the picture on his github , as part of a project that may contain some files that could be useful.

Hi, pretty late now but I made one which is still work in progress but already works nicely: [image] Fairphone 2 Cover by unwohlpol A cover for the Fairphone 2. The bottom part comes in two different versions - with a silly logo and a clear one. If you want to make your own version fee…

Thanks. And yes, you’re right - I had troubles getting the print off the bed (IF PET-G sticks it sticks very very well), so I had to use different tools and raw force for removal which produced some visible traces. Let’s just consider it as a stress-test which the cover has survived ^^ Furthermore …

The releasing of the official slim back cover files could also be a possibility, i hope, that Fairpone will release the files one day. There was a discussion about in the thread New slim back cover where @Douwe mentioned that he would ask around… [image] New slim back cover [image] New slim ba…

We currently do not have plans to publish our case designs. The files are meant to be used on specialized, non-consumer, molding machines and are therefor of very little use for the general audience. The data of the slim cases can’t be used unless you want to make a set of three double-shot moulds, …
