Bobbiethejean,
Thanks for your interest.
Yes, all the cases available to buy are built from scratch, modelled in Sketchup. I had started by downloading the model file kindly provided by Shapeways,
here, and adapted that for my first test print. But the hassle working with that mesh in Sketchup required me to build a 'clean' model to use as a template for future cases. I use the dimensions from Apples' own guidelines,
here, but borrowed the corner radius from the Shapeways model (although it could probably be 'guesstimated' from retail cases/the iPhone itself with a fair degree of accuracy).
So far I've had my own cases printed in two separate orders, the first was ever so slightly loose ~0.3mm on the long axis for the two I ordered, the second order was the blue and red honeycomb cases as well as a black secureGrip - the blue and black are *perfect*, the red not so much being a full 1mm short on the long axis. This is probably down to print orientation or where it was in the tray during fabrication.
Overall I'm extremely happy with the way they turned out - I was using the black secureGrip on my own phone the other day while enduring the throng of bargain hunters over at the mall. It felt really good in the hand.
