The other ones:

And today evening I will print a case for my recently upgraded trusty old iPod:

Update:

After a few changes the second prototype came out great, files also available for free now on my printables:

    It depends how thick the top edge is. You can also enable ironing to smooth out the top and make it less visible.

    I don’t think it’s much worse than your examples with holes in them.

      Hmm… the top edge is round, so it might work. Maybe I will give that I try :)

      The dirt gets trough the hex-holes to the phone, yes. But I believe in the gyroid infill it will get stuck somewhere in between and then not be easy to clean (depending on the type of dirt :D)

        I haven’t had that issue, but maybe I just have really clean pockets.

        If the case isn’t too thick, you don’t get the full infill and you get fewer pockets for any dirt to get caught as well. You can adjust the % of infill to get the pattern size/depth you want as well.

          Maybe, yes :D I think maybe I can somehow get only the back part to be printed without top and bottom, would definitely look more professional. I need to play around a bit with my slicer.
