My Customized Improved Phone Case

It appears you have provided a CSG (Computer-Aided Geometry) design in the format of OpenSCAD code. This language is used to create and manipulate geometric models using scripts. However, to address your request directly as you've specified it, I'll follow the format to provide an explanation of how to modify the model you're likely looking at in order to add some basic features. Since your specific goal isn't clear beyond providing the code, let's explore common operations and features that can be added: 1. **Add a Cut-Out**: - You might want to cut out certain areas for vents, ports, or simply aesthetics. - The operation for cutting out a cylinder (a typical shape for phone back designs) could look something like this in OpenSCAD: `difference()` { union() { translate([-cylinder_width/2, 0, -10]) cylinder(r = cylinder_radius, h = stencil_size + 2 * (stencil_pattern_element_overlap / 2)); } translate([30,-(40 - 20), -3.7] ) rotate(a = a = -25) minkowski() { cube([2,4,15], center = true); sphere(r=2, center=true); }; ` Here, we've added a cylindrical shape centered within the stencil pattern element with some adjustments for better alignment. 2. **Increase the Corner Resolution**: - You mentioned changing the resolution of various corners but this isn't directly possible without altering the source code or importing pre-made parts with high resolution. For simplicity in design tools like OpenSCAD, resolutions are often applied when generating G-code rather than directly during rendering. 3. **Modify Port Positions and Sizes**: - Ports can be adjusted using similar translation and scaling techniques used in the previous point. - The actual modification might require altering parameters in your custom modules or pre-defined functions to reflect the new dimensions. 4. **Change Pattern Lines Thickness**: - Changing the thickness of pattern lines generally involves adjusting parameters passed into `square` or other basic geometric operations like this: `pattern_line_thickness = 20; // in relation to stencil_pattern_element_overlap` Here’s an overly simplified version of what you could do to alter the original code's port length: ```gcode custom_left_port_length = custom_phone_thickness + 1.6; // custom modifications, replace existing value for your purposes difference() { union() { translate([(-stencil_size)/2,(cylinder_radius+(overhang_width+overhang_fillet_resolution)/2),0]) sphere(r=(pattern_element_radius+cylinder_radius)); translate([(custom_left_port_length - pattern_element_radius-stencil_size) / 2, (pattern_element_radius+(cylinder_radius+(overhang_width+overhang_fillet_resolution))/2)+custom_phone_thickness + 10,-25.6 ] ) rotate(a=-90-4) union() { translate([0,cylinder_radius-stencil_pattern_element_overlap/2, -25.4]) cylinder(h= pattern_element_radius, r = custom_phone_thickness ); translate([(40-30)/2,custom_bottom_port_length + 2,cylender_rad]] rotate(25) minkowski(){ cube([overhang_fillet_resolution+overhang_width, (custom_back_extra_port_y_position-custom_top_outer_edge_chamfer_radius- pattern_element_radius),15], center=true); sphere(r=custom_phone_thickness / 3.2 , center=true); }; } // Other geometry like phone and pattern, in addition to whatever specific custom elements you want. ``` Please remember, CSG and its tools are quite complex due to their dynamic nature of combining or subtracting shapes. Therefore, a small mistake can easily render the model invalid for production. If your primary aim is purely for decorative purposes, OpenSCAD or a similar software should be more than sufficient.
