Lapras Case Rebuild

thingiverse

This is a rebuild of the Lapras Case by PhoenixLuk based on the brilliant Lapras model by alex23qw. I thought the case was a brilliant idea but unfortunately the hinge was very difficult to print and didn't work so well. So in this model, I improved the hinge and made the everything more printable. • The pins of the hinge are on the body rather than the shell to allow both parts to be printed with fewer supports. • I added a small "hinge lock" which is inserted between the two pins of the hinge (see picture) once the shell is attached to give it a nice pressure fit so the shell stays in place when you open it. • The body now has a flat bottom so it can sit stably on a tabletop. • The shell can open more than 90°. • Internal overhangs were made flat so they can be printed without supports
