The files are for all the 3D Printable components which makes up the e-reader case. What’s not included in the files is the cutting profiles for the case that holds it. But you can just use duck tape or some flexible adhesive and it’ll work. Along with the screws, nuts and magnets required.

    Showing off a cool E-reader

    Picks a story about a character trying to create paper for physical books.

    Well played.

    Excellent, reader cases always seem to cost way more than they should, espeically with how fragile they are.

    Although, you should know you’re supposed to move over to another room to pretend your workspace is cleaner than workspaces ever are, LOL. Then, what are we rocking for the keyboard?

      Yeah, I made these because my original case broke (Nova 3 color not kobo). I sell them on Etsy, though sadly since it’s so labour intensive to stitch it ends up costing as much as the eReader. Trying to make it more upgradeable and user serviceable to better justify the price, but I’m still testing them.

      As for the desk, it’s my deterrent to keep eBay scam artists from selling my designs with my photos. I have fancy professional photos I can use if I want.

      Like this one

      The Keyboard is from EVGA but it was on clearance when I got it so I don’t think they sell it anymore.

    Nice! That’s very similar to something I want to do with my tablet and reader.

    The two hobbies I picked up over the past year are leather working and 3D printing. Funnily enough, I was about two weeks into printing before I realized… “hey - I can combine these.”
