Wrapping things up on a 3D printable model of the PowerBook Duo center clutch cover. Once I complete finishing the exterior, painting it, and test fitting it one last time, I will share the model on my Printables account (link in my signature).

Fun looking support structure! Did you have some trouble with layer shifting during the print?

Did not have any layer shift issues. Came out fairly smooth with the only major sanding required being on the end that was attached to the plate due to the brim. :) Went vertical with the print in order to have the layers going up/down on the clips for added strength.
