Support needs to be activated for the large gap in the lower right corner. Some slicers may try to add support to the buttons on the left and right side.

Please share your experiences with different printers and materials so others can benefit. + +## Installation + +Make sure you have removed all print artefacts and that the buttons can move. If necessary use a cutter to make them mobile. + +To attach the case to your card10, first insert the right edge (with the two buttons close to each other) of your card10 into case and the carefully pivot the card10 into the case. Make sure to not damage the buttons while doing so. The case snaps on to the card10 and should hold onto it by itself. Additionally you can use some string to secure it to the sewing holes of the fundamental (lower) PCB. diff --git a/card10cover.FCStd b/card10cover.FCStd new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..5f753637afe55e1b78dde9f52498a5ef122e6494 Binary files /dev/null and b/card10cover.FCStd differ diff --git a/card10cover.jpg b/card10cover.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..bfef0a6524c2e0bdbcb6a199efe256ade1dfc5b8 Binary files /dev/null and b/card10cover.jpg differ diff --git a/card10cover.stl b/card10cover.stl new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..123e0050a6d88a0cceced97ec594663f9eb67dc7 Binary files /dev/null and b/card10cover.stl differ diff --git a/cover.FCStd b/cover.FCStd deleted file mode 100644 index 9625790455d434335a8724fd331d8def6bc00fd5..0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Binary files a/cover.FCStd and /dev/null differ
