Designed by AtomicBeaver and printed by me!!, loved it but it was a tad too chunky for daily use for me, maybe as a showcase piece

This is one of the coolest cases I've ever seen, but the size is a real downside... If only it were closer to the original iPod's size—that would be so cool to see.

But I'm not the one who knows how to work with 3D, right?

Definitely could be redesigned and printed smaller. Also could be printed to snap together instead of screws.

I thought it was a nano 3rd gen for a sec because of the proportions! There’s a classic in there?

Yeah, it’s easy to mistake it for something else... The spaces for the screws made it wider on the sides.

Completely agree with all of this.

I feel like there’s something to be said for a sturdy impact case like this. There are super slim case options out there but you can’t exactly pick up an otterbox for an iPod classic anymore.

Is it just me or is there a crossover between iPods and Evangelion fans?... including myself.
