Nice work, personally i like and use the silicone cases as they also protect (to an extent) from shock due to dropping the phone.
I would be concerned about how the cases will wear out clothes/pockets they are put in and also how the case wears/affects the finish of the phone - do you line the cases with felt or some material ?

It looks good, but the buttons on the side look a little harde to access and as Zohan said, I'd be worried about it making holes in my pocket - literally!

Looks a bit of class to me, though personally I won't buy a case that doesn't have the Multi-adapt function allowing for the phone to be clicked into a holder wherever you choose to place it.

You obviously have a talent with metal, that looks a bit bulky though and like someone has ponited out, if you drop it the shock looks like it could transfer onto the phone.
I'm using one of these on my 3GS, its a Tech21 imesh case with that D30 material that was featured on the dragons den.

Cheers for all the comments...
Well, it seems most say it's too bulkly. I am looking how I can get this down more, I think I can use small bolts as this was made to suit m2.5 bolts, once I do that I can round off the corners more..... this is my first go so I am sure I can get it smaller.
But it does need to still be pretty strong, as I am aiming to sell these to building contractors to start with.
I signal is not affected, the two cut outs on the sides is where the antenna is .
I do plan to make the for the 3g as that is what I have .
I speak to Walt a few years back before he passed , he was ok with me doing one tinkerbell for my wife
Also , yes I need to sort out a small lining for the inside of the case
Thanks chris

if you're going down the contractors root, you need to do a lot of shock testing as i think the metal case will make it better.
I see a lot of people with these
