Yes, exactly.  He was working on those and I believe has those pretty much done.  I don't have the 3D modeling skills to make those as good as he did but the HuCard case was within my ability and is still what I plan on making available.

Thanks cjameslv!  Believe me, I want to make this available ASAP.....just takes a lot of testing/printing/iterations which in turn takes time....

Exactly, we need some more cool stuff to burn money on! How about printing a Shuttle Controller? Someday it might happen! ;-)

Does it have to be an existing part?  Like the Bonk joystick topper was never made, but someone with good 3D modeling might have a solid idea how to make it.

That's awesome actually. A controller unfortunately would be pretty expensive to print tho ya?

I gotta admit.....being an older gent, 3-D Printing seemed something like science fiction/not possible.  But seeing things like this make me a believer!  Great job!

UPDATE 1/27/15:  New MakerGear M2 printer has arrived and is still being broken in.  Not getting the surface finish I want yet from the printer so still in the tweaking stage.  No ETA yet until I can get the surface finish that I expect.

This is awesome!  Will be getting in line for some of these as well.

As a kid, I was not to careful with my cases.  I actually have a lot of cases where just the little plastic strip to hold the card in is broken.  Would it be possible to just sell those separately as well?  Not sure about cost/time and all that jazz.

Thanks for doing this!  Good luck on working everything out.

UPDATE 2/11/15: Print quality out of my new 3D printer is finally where I want it so one issue down - now I'm back to putting the finishing touches to the model and verifying that it fits correctly with the top case.....
