This is a slightly different take on Pentland Designs‘ amazing Slim Wallet V4.0. Namely, it has a money clip and doesn’t have the quick card access slot.
Some of the design inspiration for the money clip came from the wonderful MONEY CLIPS by YSoft_be3D
Why this design might be better than some of the other remixes
- There were almost no changes made to the original wallet’s design
- The money clip actually holds money securely
- The money clip is more durable because the grain of the print runs vertical, not horizontal
Why this design might be worse than some of the other remixes
- Loss of quick access card slot (I might add this back in later)
- The wallet no longer has a completely flat base (or rather, it has a much less wide base)
Planned updates
While this design is usable and printable in its current state, here’s some planned improvements:
- a bit more tolerance on base of money clip (currently requires post-print slimming of Wallet Case base for money clip to fit)
I can upload the Fusion 360 files if requested.
Printing Notes
The money clip is meant to be printed on its side (as oriented in its STLs), this should give it more structural integrity.
Use supports for the Case and Cap because of the hinge
