Stuff
The rev10 files include a folding mechanism with a cable passage. Currently looking for feedback for problems on this one before I do rev 11.

no hinge
rev9aback.stl is a model that should screw nicely to the back of a pinephone but doesn't have any of the hinge parts so you can use it for other pinephone projects.
Development updates
rev 10 problems
Looking for confirmation and suggestions on solutions for these issues with rev 10 that I would like to fix in 11
- Base layer too thin on lid: fixed
- Base layer too thick on phone side: fixed
- doesn't have a reset button hole
- lid is flimsy, could use a thicker wall
- still need side buttons worked out
- hinge gaps are all wrong
- hinge should rest on a hingepin not on the cable passage cup faces
- maybe include a washer or two in the hinge
- camera hole is really ugly
- headphone jack is weak
- charger hole is ugly
- need to decide on an actual size if using nuts and bolts
- bumps for holding angle should be deeper
- screw holes for pinephone might be too big?
- lid screwholes are not very useful. Maybe posts?
