Description

🚀 V2 Upgrade – Push-to-Flip Latch!
This sci-fi-inspired, rugged case just got even cooler. In this updated design, the latch has been completely reworked. Now, with a single push, the lid snaps open in a smooth, dramatic flip. It’s addictive to use and perfect for showing off at your next maker meetup.

 

✨ What’s New in V2

  • Push-to-flip latch mechanism — more fun, more satisfying, and easier to operate.
  • Still works with the magnetic pop-open trick for extra flair, or you can run it magnet-free as a regular case.
  • Same compact, durable design you loved from V1 — now with improved ergonomics.

🛠️ Build Details

  • Measurements: 85mm x 65m (not including the hinges)
  • 4 Magnets:  5x3 mm (opposing polarity in the back for the flip trick).
  • 3 Screws: 3× M3×20 mm for the hinge.
  • Print: PLA Matte at 0.16 mm layer height for a clean finish.
  • Tip: Orient the latch/lever at 45° for strength along layer lines.

If you liked the first version, you have to try this one 😊 .   Whether you’re into mechanical designs, magnets, or just want the most dramatic way to open a box, V2 delivers.

 

Round you go
