I have lots of progress on the phone case generator!

The best part is support for flexible filaments. This case better protects the screen and edges while also providing more grip.

Buttons are textured. The area is thin to make the buttons easy to press.

There's a thin section for supporting the overhangs. Remove this with a blade.

Junglecat rails work decently with TPU. It grips the controller well although the controller can be yanked off. I need to make a hard-plastic cutting guide for the rails

Galaxy S9+ support is here. The inside curves were a pain in the butt and now they're finished. Later I'll tweak the outside edges to improve the feel in hand.

I've made a simple github website for the project. 3D model files are posted here for all the possible case variations. Later I'll write a guide for 3d printing.

The build script helps here. It generates .3MF files for all configs and copies them to the github site. I want to automatically upload models on Printables and Thingiverse.
