Moto G5 PLUS protective case - Rugged V1.0

thingiverse

A while ago I designed my first Moto G5 Plus case, which worked quite nicely with most materials. However, a few days after posting that design, I got a new, awesome looking matt PLA, which I immediately tested on the G5 Plus case. The material looked great and it printed like a charm, with zero warping. The only problem was the relatively bad layer adhesion, which made the case break when trying to squeeze the phone in. To solve this issue and make this case printable in virtually any material, I decided to reinforce the cut-outs edges. Besides strengthening the case in the weakest points, it also adds more protection to the bottom area in case of a fall. I have two cases in use for the past 3 months and they are still intact and perform greatly. The phone does not feel too bulky, it sits better in the hand and, most importantly, it is well protected. By the way....the green one is the one I use on a daily basis :D Also have a black one for rather serious occasions...or funerals:)) This package contains models with a 3D pattern on the back. It also includes a version without the "M" logo cutout, as some people might prefer a simpler look. For the "bulk" version of the case, which includes a .STP file to make it easier to customize, please take a look at this post: -------------- BULK VERSION of this design will come SOON! -------------- The case is designed for the Motorola (Lenovo) Moto G5 Plus. It has two cutouts on the back, for the camera bump and for the Motorola logo, plus one small hole for the noise canceling microphone. On the side, it has a cutout for the volume key buttons and lock button and, on the bottom, it has a cutout for the charging port and the audio jack. If printed properly, it should snap nicely in, like a normal commercial case. A really great advantage is that the phone sits much nicer in the hand and is not as slippery as without the case... so, with this one, you get both prevention and protection;)
