Carrying case for Olympus TG-6

prusaprinters

<p>The TG-6 is a “tough” camera but I still like to protect it from dust and knocks. This case can be mounted on your pants-belt and can hold the camera with a wide angle lens attached. There is also a space for an extra battery.&nbsp;</p><p>Other compact cameras might fit into this case as well.</p><p>Printed in TPU, so it is somewhat flexible and soft and doesn't hurt on the hips or if you brush your hand / skin against it. The lid hinges and is held in place with 2 screws (M4) and it allows the wrist-strap to hang out so the camera can easily be pulled out of the case. I use velcro, glued to the TPU, to keep the lid closed when needed. An embossed description is printed in the lid.</p><p>Printing advice: Most of the case is easy to print, except - maybe - for the belt-loops. I printed mine without support because TPU-supports are often difficult to remove. On hindsight it might be better to use a small support there because it will keep the somewhat loose loop straight while being printed. In my case it “drooped” a bit inwards. It was still usable but less nice. As it is mostly out of view behind the belt I did not mind.</p><p>I print on glass, covered with Kapton tape, 50 degrees. Hot-end (direct drive) on 230 degrees, max. 40% cooling, around 30 mm/sec.&nbsp;</p><p>For the lid, do not use supports, the embossed letters are only 2 layers deep and easily bridged without drooping.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
