Hello, thanks in advance for any help. I have a little project I am trying to do-- I would like to merge a “Mag quadsafe universal adapter” with a Galaxy Fold 3 case. I have both STLs and i began playing with blender yesterday, and it’s possibly a little above my head.

What it seems like the steps are from my (peprhaps simplistic) point of view:

  • trim the openings on mag quad adapter to fit the camera lens and side buttons when it is perfectly centered on the case.
  • delete a square the exact size of the magsafe quadlock adapter that is perfectly centered on the back of the phone case
  • put the current model from the mag quad stl in thus square

The only thing I’ve been able to accomplish thus far is centering the mag quad adapter on top of the case. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to trim in to fit the camera and side button openings…

Any help is greatly appreciated, even if it’s just a starting point.

    Thanks! This sounds a lot, but I wanna try making it. I like modifying things to suit my use, and this sounds like a fun learning endeavor. I’ll perhaps look at OpenSCAD. This sounds similar to some of the information I found on blender (making shapes to delete areas). I need to play with these tools to get more facile at doing this.

    I don’t have a picture readily availble at the moment, but the stls are https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4935721 for the phone case (I just wanna use the right side) and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5704716 for the holder. It’s a little more complex than just a magsafe holder, it has a quadlock mount integrated.
