UV printed shell, new battery, button LEDs, and new screen.

Here is the inside

    UV printing is a way to print designs on plastic and other materials (special ink is applied to the surface and cured with UV light). This shell was definitely injection modeled, not 3D printed. I’m pretty sure the shell itself is this one.

      Here’s a pretty good video on it (recommend setting it to 1.25x speed)

      So it’s more like “UV cured” rather than “UV printed”.

        No, UV printed is still the correct term. For 3D printing, “resin printed” is the more common term.
