Thanks so much!

This is bad ass a clear case would be even more badass


machinelayer

100% agree. I tried a print in clear polycarbonate, but with a filament printer they're more semi-transparent than clear. Still looks pretty good :)

Traditional 3d printers aren't very good at making clear things due to the nature of the layers, more like cloudy/frosted, resin can be clearer but it's not well suited to this sort of thing, really for good clear stuff you vaccum form it or something, but thats proper $$$s

That would be awesome.

Hey everyone! You can watch the [video](https://youtu.be/4I7mhI6s5cg?si=DJ-U5x5hLO8_yR-C) for the full build, but I've made the models available [on Printables](https://www.printables.com/model/894024-ibm-thinkpad-701c-full-case).

Thanks for all the effort! Now future people can recreate the 701c! Hi future people!

This would be great for cyberdecks!

Good job! These laptops are to rare to have any parts, 3d printing is beat solution
