Whether you’re an experienced maker or a humble hobbyist, there are plenty of exciting opportunities with CMF Phone 1 … we might even explore producing some of your ideas, so be sure to show us what you're working on! ![](https://s3-nothing-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/2024-07-05/1720196416-938598-cmf-spec-2.jpg "banner") **What will you create?** \#cmf-phone-1 features replaceable rear cases which are secured using the common M2 screw type. In addition, the *Accessory Point* on the bottom right corner lets you attach things using either the included Accessory Point Cover or any other M2.5 screw: ![](https://s3-nothing-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/2024-07-05/1720196417-741369-cmf-spec-4.jpg "banner") *An ergonomic camera grip? A card wallet? An embossed rear cover? A lens attachment?* - you’re only limited by your imagination! https://s3-nothing-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/2024-07-05/1720196418-120806-cmf-spec.jpg https://s3-nothing-prod.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/2024-07-05/1720196417-368789-cmf-spec-3.jpg And if you’re someone who works in 3D, we also have an .stl and an .stp of the basic rear cover for you to tinker with. Early tests by some of our members suggest this can be 3D printed as it is … I'm sure we'll see some optimised files for printing emerge very soon.

Hi everyone, I’m a newbie in 3d design and i bought this phone to experiment with the back cover for one of my projects. Is there a way to modify the official stl file and add components to the cover in the camera area? Thanks in advance 🙂

Mr Steel

SimoneSaverioFildi you probably want to use the STEP (.stp) file for that

SimoneSaverioFildi

LaurenceKeir can you share the link pls. I can’t find it. (ps. Amazing work! 🙂 )

LaurenceKeir

SimoneSaverioFildi hi, sorry link to which bit? I uploaded the basic case to here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/561710-simple-case-for-cmf-phone-1-with-buttons#profileId-481171

L0N1 hey when you use the official file for 3d printing it, does it come with the volume and power buttons on the model

Like, if I were to remove the current back panel and 3d print my own, does the model have the buttons included

Derren

JayanthGupta It does not come with the buttons, nor the camera cover

The CMF Phone 1 has been an awesome phone since the day of launch and has shown many potentials.

But now it feels like with the advancing world the CMF phone 1 should Levitate to CMF phone 2. With new camera system, more back designs and textures and more attachments.

I’m working on a project right now that utilizes: 3D printing, Arduino Pro Micro and ardu buttons. But I’m having issues with software side at the moment 😁

The only thing about the “thingus” that I can spoil: When I was younger, I was obsessed with tape cassettes 😉

I made a quick and dirty accessory point cover for using M2.5 countersunk screws. I found a few covers with printed screw, but they will break very fast, and you will end up with plastic in your screw hole. I want to make my own lanyard, so this is the first step. Maybe it is usefull for somebody. I also put the OpenSCAD file online, so everybody can use it in their own designs.
