 While the outside of the phone case can take almost any shape, limited only by your imagination, the inside is a bit trickier. You have to make sure there’s room for the battery, antennae, and other protuberances, as well as openings for buttons, speaker, microphone, etc. Not fun to figure out on your own, so we’ve taken the guesswork out of the equation for you.
-Since the back for the Nokia Lumia 820 is user-removable, that's our baseline. We’re providing models in STL and STEP format, both the complete backshell/button assembly and the individual models for the shell and each of the buttons.

-(Note: If you've got a Makerbot 2, the nice folks at Makerbot have posted a version optimized for that printer [http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:43163 on Thingiverse].)
+Here are some versions optimized for other printers and services:
 Which files to choose? If you just want to start experimenting, use the first set, the STL files with components separated. STL files are the ones you can slice directly and print, and the first set separates out the buttons so you can choose not to print them. (You can always use the buttons that come with your phone.) You can also use the STL files as a starting point for modifications with some 3D design programs.
 We've also provided STP files because they're a very common interchange format for 3D models in mechanical engineering. If you're really in to 3D mechanical design, you'll probably want to start with that set.

 The bottom line with all this of course is to get your idea realized in glorious plastic. For this, you will either need access to a 3D printer or be willing to use a 3<sup>rd</sup> party service [link] to print your object for you.
-Do you have experience with a printer, scanner, print material, or service? Add it here so we can all benefit from your insight. Depending on the printer, the models may need some degree of modification to optimise the printout. (For example, see the version optimized for the Makerbot Replicator 2, posted by Makerbot [http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:43163 on Thingiverse].) If you have an optimisation for a particular printer, please let us know.

(For example, see the version optimized for the Makerbot Replicator 2, posted by Makerbot [http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:43163 on Thingiverse].)  For extrusion type printers, there is cooling shrinkage to take into account, and that differs based on material choice, whether or not you're using a heated bed, etc. Everybody has their own favorite temperature settings, so there are probably slight differences just in scaling for that.
 We'd like to include printers that community members have experience with. If you'd like to add your experiences, please include the following information:
