Finally had time to do some cad work for current prototype...
printing this night.
Thanks to skvark for 3D model 'template' (this is edited from the solartoh)
Super!
So, this is a sligthly thicker TOH cover that has space inside to allocate the screen, right?
On Friday received my 1.3" OLED and in a couple of days I should get three spools of PLA (including some blue glow-in-the-dark samples...) so I'll try it myself.

This is still about 2mm thicker than the final should be.
(But it is needed to fit the proto electronics, if i get rid of that current boost converter inductor, i can get it little thinner.)
Print was almost ok (biggest problem was that i didn't print the last version )
From the last pic you might notice a problem, this is what was fixed in the version that i ddn't print.. noh, it is only 2.5 hours to get me a new one.

I hope its so cool!
Uh... There might be a special 3 pcs auction / fastest served first when they are ready. (starting price will be 0% margin (still unk.))
It seems that my printer makes about 0.5 mm error when comparing to the 3D model in length but otherwise it prints like modeled. Just curious if I should recablirate my printer/modify the model.

Hmm, the PLA can have about 0.3 to 1% shrinkage, which my explain tightness in the long direction.
But i re-measured, and it seems that the model has small error too.
From the model: inner length = 127.34079 measured from print 127.2
phone 127.75
inner width = 65.443081 measured from print 65.3
phone 65.0
I just ordered some Premium PLA 90 from Orbi-tech. Lets see is it any better, color selection is poor for 1.75mm (3mm better)
I think i have asked, but what cad do you use? possible to share originals under DWTFYWT-license ? or just for me, i'll buy you a beer or ES
