Description

I have created a grip which is exact (scaled a few milimeters up) shape of Game Boy Color. This gives a WAY better placement for the thumbs (they do not crunch anymore) and it is a JOY to use the Miyoo Mini Plus ;)

 

It doubles as a screen protector / flippable case - as I have based my design on this flipable version:

https://www.printables.com/model/596790-miyoo-mini-plus-flippable-case

 

My grip has a lot of details thought out:

  • clearance for volume rocker
  • clearance for power button
  • corner stopper that the Miyoo would not flip
  • OG GBC shape!

It is really comfortable to hold - just as the OG GBC ;)

 

I have added the step file as well if you would like to modify it to your liking.

 

Prints straight, with all the supports - in my case the supports came out very cleanly and I did not needed to fiddle with it at all.

I added a 1mm filc at the bottom - it gave a very nice snug/smooth fit. Also I have put a very thin strip of grip tape on the iner wall - I like when its snug locking but smooth to pull out. 

 

Good luck printing!

really love the design but when I add the felt liner, it becomes a very tight fit. the grips on the sides don't reach around the front anymore. is there a way to make the space for the felt like a few fractions of a millimeter deeper?

Thanks! I have made the tolerances for 0.8-1mm felt thickness. It would be easier to buy new felt :) You can edit the model yourself - there is a step file attached so you can modify it to your liking with fushion 360 or any other.. program. What is the thickness of your felt? I might be able to check and if it fits - upload a new model.

Replying to @t4delis :
i measured the felt and it's just a little over 1mm (the calipers show something around 1.2).

Sorry, but I do not have mini and without it would be difficult to iterate the design.

didn't work out for me, support removal was very hard and left a messy finish. Tolerance regarding the felt pad could be a bit higher.
