This time I’m trying something a little different. I’m making a phone case, and by me I actually mean me with the help of my brother. My Brother recently got him self a CNC machine, that means I got a CNC machine. Just so happens I also recently got a new phone. A fairphone 5, and since I lack self control, and that little voice that goes “you cant do that”. I decided to try and make my own phonecase out of wood.

Feedback is much appreciated.

        That’s great! Anything that stood out? I can’t get the 5 on the states but really looking forward to the 6 and actually being able to fix my phone.

          I got it with /e/OS, the integrity features really stood out. Anonymous account for the App lounge so you can download apps that would otherwise require a google acount, doesnt. That it blocks tracker on everything. Unused apps loose privileges. The camera is really great if you understand ISO and what settings to use . Also love that I can choose refresh rate on the display, to save battery. Oh and the battery life is great. I get about a day and a half with my use. Before I charge it. And then its not completely drained.

            That’s great thanks!

            I was worried about the battery. I thought the amount of Mah was a bit low on some of the older phones. It’s more than my current pixel now for the newer phones.
