New 3DS XL Grip Case

thingiverse

This is a remix of Ghost_In_The_Machine's New 3DS XL Wide Ergonomic Grip, I have modified it so it has a different method of holding the case with better clearance when closing. The original summary is: This is an ergonomic grip for the New 3DS XL. There is nothing obstructing the headphone jack, power button, stylus, game cartridge slot, or charging port. I have rather large hands and I designed it to fit my specifications. I've also included a narrower version for people with normal sized hands. Please note that the top brackets snap into the little holes in the New 3DS XL, which I think are made for a wrist strap or something. In order to take the 3DS out of the ergonomic grip, one has to gently pry the top two tabs. Instructions: Please see photos. The grips print in two halves. I included alignment pins which can be printed and placed into the alignment holes and aid in adhering the two halves. I recommend using an 80% infill with supports for the base piece (where the 3DS actually snaps in) for rigidity. The grips and alignment pins can be printed with 15% infill with no supports if you'd like. I also recommend printing on a smooth print sheet, rather than a textured one.
