But, I've printed it with some cheap PLA at 210C. Set resolution to MID and infill to FULL. M3D software said that it would print for 29 hours but it actually took more than 48 hours. Post-Printing: Step 1. Remove supports Step 2. Find M5 screws and nuts Step 3. The nut size isn't good in the casing so you need to melt that part Use pliers to keep the nut and heat it until it can be stuck into the case nut compartment. Use epoxy and glue it firmly in place. Step 4. Apply Plasti Dip Spray the whole casing with Plasti Dip for extra strength, grip, and for making GoPro clips slide easily. First, one layer was applied to the clips and mounts. Second, four layers were applied to the rest of the casing. Step 5. Use 1.5cm M5 screws to screw cover onto the case Step 6. You can apply Plasti Dip to the cover if desired Step 7. Attach velcro straps As my case already has velcro holes, it's easy to attach this case to your bag or anywhere else. Step 8. Enjoy the finished project! Now you can create your own custom covers by remixing and editing mine, and then sharing them. I'd love to see what new ideas others come up with!

Specifically, I'd like to give a shout-out to Thumber from Thingiverse for their awesome grip design (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:719230) which I used in this case.
