Hex Connect iPhone Air Ultralight Case

This is an iPhone Air ultralight case made to work with Hex Connect mounts. The non-XL variants can be printed with less than 18g of filament!

Also pictured: my Hex Connect mountain bike head tube mount

Made to be printed in rigid plastics, PLA, ABS, PETG, and ASA should all work fine.

The three provided variants are:

1. Standard with Magsafe - Connects to the standard Hex Connect connector. Has a recess for mounting a thin Magsafe metal sticker with ID of 45mm and OD of 55mm.
2. Standard without Magsafe - Connects to the standard Hex Connect connector without the Magsafe recess.
3. XL - Connects to the XL Hex Connect connector. It's too thick for proper Magsafe functionality so no magsafe recess included.

Standard vs XL pros and cons:

Standard:

• Pros
  • Thin enough for proper Magsafe support (2 mm)
  • Slimmer case is more convenient for everyday use
  • Allows use with Magsafe mounts using a case-mounted metal ring
  • Probably stronger than you would expect :)
• Cons
  • Not as strong as XL

XL:

• Pros
  • Strongest connection for high-intensity activities
• Cons
  • Thicker case is less convenient for everyday use

  • Not Magsafe compatible
