Samsung Galaxy SIII Mockup

Description

This is a case for the Samsung Galaxy S3.

update 3/19/2013: I have added a .skp version of the case for all of you sketchup fans out there, have fun.

I have attached the .stp files and .dwg files so you can edit them more easily.

i was also able to fix the flash alignment and the power button alignment. if i had an s3 i would have known about the issue haha but i have a razr maxx.

Ok guys i finally got around to fixing the small holes for the buttons, i made the holes bigger and i made the part around the buttons thinner, i also made the case 2mm thick so it will be easier to print. i can make it any thickness desired... lol 10mm would be awesome. also i made the top part cut out like the bottom to make it easier to snap over the phone.

Instructions

Make sure you look at the sides of the case in the computer before you print it, make sure they are filled and not just one perimeter thick. also i would recommend using support material if your printer is not finely tuned for overhangs.

So I'm trying to print this on my new replicator 2 without supports or anything and when it starts to to the sides it goes wonky. Should I be using supports? Anyone have suggestions on infill and shells?

DFarms on March 16, 2013 said:

yes i recommend using support material on the sides, at 45 degrees and about 2mm spacing. it should be fairly easy to peel off.

does anyone know how to attach a design (stl file) on to the back of the phone cover? tnx

anewsome on March 13, 2013 said:

OpenSCAD should be able to import the STL directly. From there you can import another STL or native OpenSCAD geometry. You'll probably need to use translate and union operator to create a solid printable part.

I believe you can use blender to do that, although im not sure.

does anyone know how to convert this to openscad?

DFarms on February 18, 2013 said:

i figured it out!

angus1357 on February 4, 2013 said:

Can someone edit this file to just get rid of the material above the volume and power buttons? Also maybe make those cutouts a little wider?

DFarms on February 15, 2013 said:

just did it, it should be perfect now.

made 2 so far . only issue i had was the holes on side need to be a little bit bigger . other than tight access to side buttons , it fit perfect and had no issues with splitting whatsoever . and i have dropped it several times and its still is perfect

ecafruoy on December 13, 2012 said:

made 3...  had to cut out the button and jack holes a lil more with some more taper. Had splitting at bottom of case on all 3 when installed... thinking of scaling up ever so slightly then adding a thin layer of silicone caulk post print. My thinking is that the silicone will take up the slack space and "give" enough to prevent the abs from splitting.

I made it a little roomier now and fixed all of the issues that people have mentioned.

JohnnyDude on December 8, 2012 said:

I made one! Fits great!

I can barely get my fingernail in to hit the power button, but I'll be "fixing" that. The overall shape is spot-on, it fits perfectly!

DFarms on December 9, 2012 said:

sorry i havent been responding, ive been swamped with work, homework and finals, im working on one with bigger holes for the buttons, and one with built in buttons.

you forgot the mic hole at the top.. 

MacGyver on December 6, 2012 said:

What! I can't hear you.  I think the mic might be obstructed or something.

Printing this out today. I just bought my Slll, and I did not buy a case just so I could print my own case out! I will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the model!

DFarms on December 1, 2012 said:

i have printed one out, it needs support material due to the shape, and the holes are too small so i made the case have built in buttons that work quite well, im going to upload it soon. so you should probably wait until then.

DFarms on November 27, 2012 said:

I dont actually have an s3 but i made it using the specs from their sight, its about 0.1mm loose, i have no idea if thats enough or too much.

nilsepils94 on November 27, 2012 said:

Thank you sooo mutch! I was almost going to hire someone to make the model for me :P I will print it somewhere this week. Would you want to know what could be better?

You are awesome! :)
