Thickened Case for Slim Wallet V2.0 (Updated with better lever design)

thingiverse

-----UPDATE - Mar.21.17----- A screw pin/cap has been added, resulting in less play in the hole. Printing these at a 0.14mm layer height or lower will ensure nice threads. Another lock was also included, similar to the original but with filleted edges, making it easier to put into place using some pressure from a screwdriver - this way your cards stay secure. ---------UPDATE - Feb.16.17------------- The lock proved difficult to get in due to the new wall thickness, so it has been redesigned to be slid into the upper notch orthogonal to its resting position. Once it's sitting sideways in the channel, rotate it downward by 90 degrees to lock it in place. Keep in mind that this means less surface area is locking down the cards, making the lock less firm compared to the old one. However, it still holds the cards securely (it passed the hold it upside down and shake the hell out of it test). A component from another design (the Cardinal Wallet by virustwin) has been sliced in for a more robust money clip. The layers are orthogonal to the load on the clip, making it quite strong. --------UPDATE - Feb.4.17----------------- The original lever required the case to be bent for it to fit, making it very difficult to insert with my original revision. I also think I made it bit too thick, so I reduced the thickness slightly and re-designed the lever; the lever now freely slides into its place with a pin/cap that slides through the case/lever to secure it. This new mechanism seems to work well, the pin and cap should snap together snugly, but feel free to apply a dab of glue if you wish. -------Original Post--------- I loved the original design and idea, but I wanted this model to be a bit thicker as it felt quite brittle. I also had no need for the money clip; moreover, I noted that some comments on the original design also desired a thicker casing. I sliced and diced the original casing up, removed the money clip, thickened the front and back, and also shaved off the "Pentland Designs" embossing along the edge (I hope that is okay, I didn't want to modify something and still represent the brand). Enjoy!
