I’ve been able to print just about anything from amazon or ebay so long as I measure each roll. The grey was Gizmo Dorks, white was Flash Forge, Clear was Mg Chemicals., Black was Esun PETG

Add Simplify3d to your overall cost, Its worth every penny.

It would be easier to tell you what to stay away from ( black Shaxon ABS). I generally try not to bad mouth a product but that stuff was terrible. I cant vouch for the other colors since I refuse to use it. Shaxon PLA prints just fine.

First build in progress, if it goes well I’ll consider selling it or making additional ones for sale

Two tiny questions:

Which one is the best for an iPhone 6?

Is there an assembly video somewhere?

Thanks for creating this, it looks amazing!

Hey Laura, no worries :slight_smile: To answer your questions:

  • I guess that would be the large one. If you look at the button with the downloadable files in the thread (screenshot attached), the large model mentions iPhone 6
  • Hmm, no video, but there’s a tutorial about it on Instructables, which walks you through all the steps: Pip-Boy 3000 Mark IV – Ytec 3D 1

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the response! I am mostly confused over the fact that it says iPhone 6 is the largest download but the dimensions from Apple say the iPhone 6 is 138.1 mm X 67.0 mm X 6.9 mm which lies with the dimensions of the smallest download. I don’t know which one would be better since they are two very different options.

Thanks again!

Indeed, according to the measurements, the smaller size would fit the iPhone 6 perfectly.

@koenbodewes do you know where the difference comes from? Why go for a Large when a small-sized would fit? Thanks

There are three sizes. They are scaled for the phones more than to fit the arm. I think the intent is to pad it to fit after it is assembled.

Bringing this thread back to life. I’ve filled two orders for this recently. It is a fantastic model to print, all of the parts are built for printing and come aligned correctly to the print bed. I offer the prints in whatever base color the customer selects and then print out a plate of white parts, black parts and translucent for the lamps. This makes assembly and finishing easier as there is very little painting to deal with. https://www.3dhubs.com/grand-rapids-mi/hubs/miaviator

I’ll have to pull up the last order when I’m back at the office. It’s around $50 + $12.50 shipping for two priority mail boxes. Takes about a week continuous to print at 240 micron ABS.

I want it! Make me one of yours. Will it fit a note3 if not then an iPhone 6.

There is a link in the first post here for the large version which lists the iPhone 6. Just set the hub location to “Wyoming, Michigan” and you’ll see my hub. It doesn’t matter what you select for material or printers. Just let me know what base color you want and post a link to this board so I can adjust the pricing for you. (My hub editing functionality is currently broken so my pricing and lead times are off)

Why are these scaled to 108%? I have a customer that wants a set in PLA and want to know if I can just print the files how they are without any problems with fitment or scaling.

I haven’t printed one myself yet, but I’d say it’s likely intended to improve upon the fit of the original Bethesda one… As an owner of the Pip-Boy Edition, I can tell you literally first hand that it doesn’t fit everybody. :frowning: (And that was scaled down from the in-game device to better fit a smartphone as the screen…so that was part of the problem.)
