I designed this set of models to be replacement parts for the 1995 IBM ThinkPad 701C and 701CS laptops.

The attached 3MF file is a project file created in OrcaSlicer that has everything laid out. 

Some of the pieces BARELY fit on a 256mm build plate, but using thin, organic supports works well and I've been able to make all the plates printable without cutting.

I ended up using Bambu Lab PETG-CF for the main material and PLA for the support interface material on the display bezels and the clips.

The tolerances are VERY tight, so be prepared to try different orientations to get a solid print and you'll need to make sure that ALL support material is removed in order to get things to fit.

Thanks to Karl Buchka for providing the initial model for the Keyboard cover!
