Nintendo Switch Docking Case MKIII

cults3d

Here it is, the 3D printed Nintendo Switch Docking Case MKIII. In this update I cut the base into separate pieces so the whole case can be printed on smaller format printers. All parts are printable on Prusa i3 and ender3 sized printers. I also redesigned the back struts so they not only prevent tipping but also allow the cables to be wrapped around them for even quicker portability. The only parts that changed from the MKII are the Base and the Handle. All other components stayed the same and additional parts were added for the retractable back struts. You will need the following supplies(This purchase list has not changed since MKI): -0.5 x 4 x 15mm Compression Springs (QTY.5) -Music Wire 0.031” Dia. -1.5mm Diameter Rod -3mm Steel Stock -Flat Head Screw Set -Set Screw Set -Socket Head Cap Screw Set -Dock for Switch -3/4” Wide Velcro -3/4” Elastic Strap -Thread -Felt Sheet Screw List: -M3 x 6mm lg.

I printed all the parts out of PETG at 0.3mm layer heights. No supports for any of the parts. I used 5 walls for all parts and 4 top and bottom layers. I have included a build guide in the downloads with many more pictures and some basic instructions. Happy Printing and thank you for the support!
