CAGE CASE - Rugged outdoor case

Designed for the outdoors, this rugged case is 100% 3D printed – no screws required.

The frame includes built-in slots for cords, straps, or small carabiners, making it easy to attach to a backpack, bike, belt, or hang in a tent.

The snap-lock system offers a secure, reliable, and easy-to-use closure, while the hinges are engineered to be smooth, precise, and durable.

PRINTING GUIDELINES:

• The design and tolerances have been optimized for 3D printing with a 0.16mm layer.
• Print hinges and snap locks preferably on smooth plate with glue.
• Print the lids preferably on textured plate with glue.
• It is highly recommended to keep the profile configurations and the arrangement of objects on the print bed intact.

INSTRUCTION:

• STEP 1: Assemble the hinges and take the bottom lid (look at the shape of the joint in the image below).

   

  

   

• STEP 2: Slide the hinges into the slots. In case of tolerance issues during the printing process, the hinges may be slightly loose. In such a case, it is recommended to add a very small amount of superglue.

   

  

   

• STEP 3: Insert the other end of the hinges into the slots on the top lid.

   

  

   

• STEP 4: Insert the bottom parts of the snap locks into the slots on the bottom lid.

   

  

   

• STEP 5:  Insert the top parts of the snap locks into the slots on the top lid. Make sure to completely remove the brim from the parts.

   

  

   

• STEP 6 (OPTIONAL): Insert TPU liners inside the lids. Download it here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1334762-tpu-lining-for-cage-case-rugged-outdoor-case#profileId-1373835
