CMF - Modular Storage System - Play

Introducing the CMF Modular Storage System - Guitar Pick Edition.

I've designed a modular storage system to hold small objects within your phone. Simply change the linear sliding mechanism within to change what object you hold in your phone.

Key Features - 

• Integrated Modular Storage within phone case
• Discrete and compact
• Appeals to NOTHING's  Minimalist style
• Simple flexural deployment mechanism
• Easy printable shapes 
• Able to be built on top of original phone components
• Satisfying linear slide
• Limitless possibilities

Remix Instructions - 

• Download the provided .STEP file to remix the entire design assembly.
• To utilize the modular aspect of the design, simply change the shape at the end of the “Linear Slide” to fit whatever object you want to store within the CMF
• If the item you are attempting to store is thicker than the provided space in the model, you will to increase the size of the Linear Guide, Linear Slide, and Flexural Springs appropriately.
• Keep in mind, if you change the thickness of the flexural springs, they will get more stiff the thicker you go.

Assembly Instructions - 

• Print all components provided in the .3mf file package
• Place the “Linear Guide” on the outside face of the “Back Case”
• Align the “Linear Slide” within the negative geometry of the “Linear Guide” and leave it in the Retracted Position
• Install the “Flexural Spring” components to the “Back Case”
  • You should be able to test the function of the linear slide at this point. The Flexural Springs may try to come out until the shroud is installed.

•  

  

• Align the screw tabs of the “Shroud” to the recesses within the “Back Case”
• Fasten all 5x screw locations 

The deployment mechanism was inspired by https://www.instructables.com/100-3D-Printed-Linear-Snap-Action-Mechanism. It's a super simple design and incredibly useful!
