A medal made of Lithium perhaps?

This is fine and all...given an opportunity and no need to make the triple decker....means after completion...I will then be able to make exacting measurements for ports to be cut (possibly) on the Master...or simply leave it clean for that kinda stuff to be decided by the individual (prob best.)....or I could carve geometric pattern along the entirety of the sides with and work designated blank spacing between said pattern (key pattern knotwork ....love the pattern) to give the whole piece ....when put together the look of designed purpose for every (uncut blank) port. That would run me a bit longer...possibly a week...maybe longer.

Hmm.....the most critical thing for the community in my most humble estimation is to use every available method of finding a resin working guru who knows his stuff...that is critical. Absolutely.
This part and so much more that could be done for and by this community could be done very affordably...
when I say that I mean...say your device takes a severe impact...the resin should absorb the impact...your device at worst comes apart and the resin piece is damaged or destroyed having absorbed said impact...and cheap enough to shrug your shoulders and order another.

make the piece out of antler dust/ resin...the piece will still absorb the impact but will most likely survive...where your existing case may not.
Replace EVERYTHING with antler dust/ resin body....well...watch those stress tests again on those 18 yr old pieces that weathered 7 years buried outside through winters and then were brutally tested by me...amplify the resiliency a few times and THAT is the result....no more fear for your device. WHATEVER device it is....bodies for the n770 up to the n9 could be made...cheap.
A better Jolla body...whatever......cases ...enhancing attachments....Incredibly resilient...incredibly strong...incredibly lovely to look at...and ...last a long time.
Long time? what is that to me?
longer than 10 000 year radioactive half life...longer than diapers in the landfill....longer than both combined.....if you want an ethical and moral alternative...this is it.
I have done countless pieces ...literally ...in my lifetime thus far.
My work is on every continent...from small to elaborate...if only 1/10 of my work survives the ravages of time...it is still 1000's of pieces.
My name means nothing in the face of time...it will be forgotten ...long before my works start falling apart..
What means something... is leaving as much loveliness behind ....flooding the world with it. Virtually indestructible. Lasting 10's of thousands of years....that is what I intend to leave behind me...everyone here now has the opportunity to do the same.

Anyway back to topic...
...just imagine what I could make as a Master for mold work.
If it is physically ....structurally possible for it to exist...even very thin...very delicate....Then it is possible for me to make it.
I enjoy a challenge....
I enjoy making something different and new...
But I REALLY like to embellish the different and new.
I will make cases and stuff...but mainly so I can do some wicked carved motif on it...that is why I really like to do this stuff .
No matter how perfect....a plain case....a plain body...is just a plain box....boring. I'd lose interest rapidly if I couldn't carve pattern or animals or people all over it...or in scenes...

hmm...forget the medal...just pass the Lithium please.
