iPhone 4 Book Case

thingiverse

Inspiration for this thing came from the Folding Wood Booklet by SNIJLAB found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:12707 As soon as saw the Folding Woob Booklet on Thingiverse I knew that design had lots of potential. Around the same time when I found the SNIJLAB design I was searching for ideas to make an iPhone 4 Case and thought this would be perfect. I wanted the finished case to resemble a moleskine note book and I think I came pretty close. Cut on an Epilog mini 40Watt laser Instructions For this thing I used 3mm 3-ply Craft Plywood and leather strips. To Glue all the peices to together I used Elmer's Carpenters Wood Glue. Start by downloading all of the files in a format that you can open and use. Before you go any further check that files are scaled to fit that stock that you will be using. (Note that Page 1 must be cut twice.) Cut Start the assembly by glueing the pages in this order (starting from top to bottom) Page1, Page1, Page2 After that has dried, cut a strip of leather about 12inches. Set the strip of leather in the channel at the bottom and top of page2 (check length of leather by setting the pages with strap in the folding book cover) Apply glue to the channels in which the leather will be held and let it dry. Glue pages to the side of the fold book cover with out the slot cut in it and let it dry. Glue small tab that is cut out in the fold book file into the slot that is cut in the fold book cover and let it dry. Enjoy!
