Made test-order to shapeways too. (estimated arrival here by end of month )

(Their online quote does not give any volume discount)

For polished ones, they have also low count of colors compared to sculpteo. (see below)

I will check out also frosted plastics (it is the only material they print down to my current wall thickness) frosted ultra detail is what they print to my original thickness requirement of 0.3mm - but that costs about 50€...

Kimmo, will you sell your toh as plug n play or diy kits?
Would like to have just the parts and doing the assembly and soldering myself. I have no idea of what i would be doing though, so I would need a guide.

Just for clarification, I'm interested in the DIY variant as well. I can also provide soldering/construction for anyone close to Linköping, Sweden, or anyone willing to pick it up here, for those that prefer that (and to relieve @kimmoli from time-consuming assembly, so he can focus on design).

DIY kits are ok for me.
PCB + parts + bom/assy drawings.
How about the 3d print, are you able to manage that 'diy' too?

Seems that no printing 'factory' is able to fullfil my requirements of 0.3mm thickness in certain part of the TOH, bezel around the display.
(except shapeways frosted plastic Ultra detail which is $$$) (And my own printer)

Summary of wall thicknesses with reasonable priced coloured materials;
  • Sculpteo 0.5mm
  • Shapeways 0.7mm
  • i.materialise 0.8mm

I have contacted now couple of local suppliers here in Finland, lets see what they can do.

(same issue is then with eink/epaper TOH too, so finding good supplier now makes life easier in future)

so we basically have to decide if 0.2mm are worth the premium price-tag?

would glueing something like a .5mm square plastic foil onto the display to even it out be an option?

.5mm clear acrylic sheets should be available quite easily, it's probably just a question of finding the right glue (something like the one that's used for screen protectors...

@kimmoli: unfortunately no 3D-printer available here. But if provided with CAD-files and BOM, I could maybe produce circuit-boards in our (small) facility.

Can you share the Cad-files and/or BOM now? I haven't really look into TOH development yet, and are interested getting some inspiration.

If I buy the DIY kit, what must I do to print/order the case from eg. shapeways?
Sending my jolla back for repair and can't afford to order toh now if I must pay to get the phone fixed(I'm a student...)
Can't wait to buy either this or your e-ink project, wich ever is available once I get my phone back.

I would like still to keep my baby home to just make sure everything is ok.
Today i tested it in another jolla, and when i installed it back to my own there was a 'jealous-latchup-event' and display was showing only noise.
After few minutes not-connected and changing 'WTF' to <3 it was up and running again. Might be reset timing issue.

(And i'm making some extra PCB, so no need to make them DIY - or do you mean about the assembly/soldering process?)

I will provide STL file to print or order one (or lets see if i am generous due your situation )

I will now update the original post about DIY kit.
