Which 3D printing material should I use for an impact resistant iPhone case?

I hate Otterbox cases because they expose the area on the back where the Apple logo is. I will instead engrave the Apple logo into the case and paint it shiny silver after it was printed

ABS is the most impact resistant but PLA would work fine with about 3 shells and 50% infill. Use silver colored filament and you might not have to paint it. The thing about printing your own case is, if it breaks, just print another.

  • Would the printing machine work with my iPhone connector? If I took my I phone 4s into a store with printing machines could I connect it with my iPhone connector (the machines accept USB, is that classed as one?) would this work? Or should I just use a pen drive?
  • Which is a better material for a case? Hi, I'm getting the new iphone and considering the price I want to give it plenty of protection Which case is the better at absorbing impact force and energy and preventing damage? A hard Durable plastic case? Or a Silicone gel Case?
  • What material is this iPhone case made of? I found this iPhone case that I would like to buy, but I don't want to buy another silicone case. Does anyone have it? The name of the case is "Music Monsters, A lot of them", and I found it on this Swedish site: http://www.teknikproffset.se/MOBIL/Apple-iPhone/Baksideskal/iPhone-4/Music-Monsters-design-skal-till-iPhone-4--4S--A-lo.htm. If you don't want to click the link you could just google the name.
  • What Material is iPhone 5C's Back? So I held it for the first time and the back is amazing I think it's plastic? But a very high quality, anyway I have an iPhone 5 and I want to have a case that feels like it! Can someone please link me one! It'd mean a lot!
