−	~~This page is a repository for alternate case designs for the [[Neo1973]], intended to be designed, built and fitted by the community/the phone's owner.~~
−
−	Each alternate case design suggestion needs some or all of: a description, intended uses, design options, a 3D model in an open format (e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_(file_format) .stl], .blend (Blender)), rendered images of the intended design, materials, components and information regarding interfacing electronically to components within the phone.
−
−	~~== Manufacture ==~~
−
−	~~There are numerous rapid prototyping companies that will very cheaply make small run components from various polymers, including:~~

−	~~[http://www.absprototypes.net ABS Protytpes]~~
−
−	~~[http://ponoko.com Ponoko]~~
−
−	~~[http://rapidobject.com Rapid Object]~~
−
−	~~[http://www.rapidprototyping.co.nz Rapid Prototyping New Zealand]~~
−
−	~~[http://www.redeyerpm.com/Default.aspx Red Eye RPM]~~
−
−	~~Other materials may require traditional manufacturing techniques including milling, forging, injection-moulding, either by the user or short-run companies such as:~~

−
−	~~[http://www.msersen.net/msgme.php?p={$pagef}&c={$setcount}/ (4 axis) gantry style cnc router for hire. Click for inquiries]~~
−
−	~~[http://techshop.ws Techshop]~~
−
−	~~==Cost Example==~~
−	Rapid Object charge from 1.9 Euros per cm^3 of material (photosensitive polymer) used, plus postage. The case for the Neo looks to be about 1.5mm thick, so conservatively, the back of the case will be approximately:<br>
−	~~120 x 60 x 1.5<br>~~
−	~~+ 120 x 9 x 1.5 x 2 (2 sides)<br>~~
−	~~= 10,800<br>~~
−	~~+ 3,240~~
−
−	~~= 14,040 mm^3~~
−
−	~~~ 14 cm^3~~
−
−	~~~ 26 Euros~~
−
−	~~and the front will be (allowing for the screen hole):<br>~~
−	~~(120 x 60 - 43 x 58) x 1.5<br>~~
−	~~+ 120 x 9 x 1.5 x 2 (2 sides)<br>~~
−	~~= 7,059<br>~~
−	~~+ 3,240~~
−
−	~~= 10,299 mm^3~~
−
−	~~~ 10cm^3~~
−
−	~~~ 19 Euros~~
−
−	~~==Notes==~~
−	None of this can be accomplished without the dimensions of existing phones - if FIC are unable/unwilling to release precise dimensions, a user of a Neo1973 will need to measure their phone and upload the information to [[Neo1973 case schematics]] in the form of a 3D CAD model.
−
−	~~Some users may want combinations of the variants listed - popular/simple options such as Stylus Mount/Different speaker orientation/Extra battery/Extra storage may be combined into one model.~~
−
−	~~== Design Variant Suggestions ==~~
−	~~Some of these are a copy of requests in [[Wish List - Hardware#Casing]], some are from ideas thrown up in the community mailing list.~~
−
−	~~Many of these cannot be implemented without some design changes to the phone PCB. As mentioned in [[Expansion Back]]~~
