The new version can accommodate 6 cards, compared to 5 in the previous iteration.
The popup mechanism is now easier to detach from the printer, eliminating the need for holes in the back to crack open the mechanism.
The retention mechanism has been entirely redesigned to secure cards from the top rather than the side. This ensures more secure card placement, and the wallet is compatible with any number of cards, up to 6.
This model still demands a highly precise printer, as the internal mechanism is separated from the wall by a mere 0.2 mm.
I have not yet designed a money clip for the back, but it will be included in a future update.
Printing :
Nozzle size : 0.4 mm
Layer height : 0.2 mm
PLA and PETG both work
No support needed
The STL is already oriented, the model is printed upright
Freeing the mechanism :
Force on the slider to crack it open :
If it is not enough, you can push the pivot on the back :
failed three times at the exact same spot, printed on a P1S with Bambu black PLA. Fail happens at layer 399-400 (measured them both with a caliper and checked in the slicer.3 Prints, 3 fails, all on the same part as you can see on the 3 different photo's it's a a little lip that curls up in the layers after the diagonal part comes in, probably gets knocked over by the nozzel. definitly user error, but no idea how to fix it.
Edit: i added 2 pictures after succesfully printing one, i went through the slicer trying to figure out what goes wrong at that exact layer every time and as you can see on the slicer picture it puts the seam right at the diagonal line wich causes it to curl up abd knock the print off the plate.
After using seam position -> random i managed to print it, but as you can see in the picture it is riddled with little spots of the random seam position. This is on my end and i might have to do some calibration.
Absolutely genious design for the upper part. A big improvement over the first version.
Love it. Made a little ring to the side to be able to attach my Samsung SmartTag2.
Printed with Creality CR-PETG Translucent

I used standard settings. Have you tried cleaning your lead rods and re-calibrate? Maybe also drying the PETG. I've had some quality issues using damp petg before.
One thing that helped me too is running some nozzle cleaning filament through the nozzle now and then. I do this too after using filament like abs, carbon fiber, nylon etc. keeps the nozzle really clean.

The original designer profile was failing for me in PLA and ASA. I saw this profile and figured I'd give it a shot before trying to slice it up myself, and sure enough this one did the trick.
I printed this vertically in Galaxy Blue Polymaker PolyLite ASA and am thrilled with the results.
went to like 75% and then popped off the bed. I put a brim around it after the first one. still same issue. maybe I just need to learn more on how toset brim
what kind of bed are you using? I used the Texured PEI and had no issue at all. Even without a additional brim. Every print with PLA and PETG was working.
OUTSTANDING!! I needed this in my life. My old money clip would fall out of my pickleball bag so easily. Your design is perfect and it won't damage my cards, it holds cash securely, and my (American) cards are locked in there nice and snug. It also printed flawlessly! I printed this one in PLA as a proof of concept. I will print again in ABS for durability. Thanks for making this available. Well done.
UPDATE: Printing in ABS turned out even better. YES!! The ABS print was done at .16, again, with small support paints. Gamechanger! Thanks, doc! Let me know if you want me to share my profile. Note the thick loop remix I made for my Tile.
