I was surprised to see there is no wallet-style SD Card holder so I decided to give a try and as I’m pretty happy with the result, I decided to share it with the community.
Slicing & Printing
Nothing special, you know better your printer than I do !
Tolerance is about 0.25mm so adjust you setting if needed.
I’ve printed it without supports but you could add ones so the rounded part will print smoother.
It has been printed with 0.2mm layer height on a Tevo Tornado at 215°C, it seems good enough to me.
Depending on your printer and / or filament you may need to adjust the scale.
I have a filament that printed perfectly at 100% scale and another one that I should have printed at 101 or 102%.
Same for the caps, the optimal scale in my case was 115%.
I printed the caps independently with 3 different sizes, 105, 110 and 115% it only takes 5 minutes.
After Printing
You will have to snap the springy thing off, a little pressure should be enough but be careful, it could break !
Insert a piece of filament into the tiny hole to join the two parts together.
Cut out the filament flush and insert the tiny caps.
Sharpening the filament helps to run smoothly trough the hole.
You may sand the hinge a little for a perfect fit !
Once Assembled
If the hinge is too tight, open and close it a few times to smooth it out.
Bonus
As you can see, there are four little holes at the corners on the inside.
That is to fit some neodyme magnets 2mm x 1mm (2mm of diameter and 1mm of thickness).
I couldn’t try this feature cause my magnets are still on the way.
P.S. : Don’t blame me for my english, Corsican guy ! 🙂

La tolérance d’une des deux parties était trop étroite, en résultait un assemblage très serré. Ce n’est normalement plus le cas.
Tolerance on one side was too tight so assembling was tight as well, should be fixed now.
