How is a 3D printed lighter case made?
The process starts digitally: every character is modeled in three dimensions and hollowed out to the measurements of the Clipper body. It is then printed on the workshop machines in PLA+ filament, at 0.1–0.2 mm layer height depending on the model; a single case takes a few hours on average. Once printing ends, the support structures come off, the layer lines are inspected, and the case is fitted onto a real Clipper lighter to test the seat. Anything that fails that test never goes into a box.
