Earbud Case

youmagine

I needed a compact case to hold earbuds that matched my business card case. After reviewing various designs, I decided to start from scratch. I redesigned this case at least four times and developed multiple variations for two of those designs. The result is a decent-looking case that's somewhat compact, although it's still not as small as I'd like due to the large radius on the outside cover. This design consists of two pieces: an outer cover and a center piece or case that holds the earbuds. The outer cover slides over the center piece and is secured by two protrusions on the inside of the cover that fit onto the top and bottom of the inside radius on the center piece. Breaking the design into two pieces makes it easier to swap out the outer cover for different designs. I've included .stl files for both the case and the cover, but I haven't shared the SketchUp files as they require some processing to generate the .stl files.
