The iPhone 13 Candy Catapult Case

Jeff Butts ·

I’ve been thinking about getting a 3D printer for quite some time, and now I may have the perfect excuse. While waiting for his iPhone 13 Pro Max to be delivered, Matty Benedetto designed and produced his own custom case.

If designing and crafting something like this isn’t a good enough excuse to buy a 3D printer, I don’t know what is.
