Shaw,
Thanks for the tip on coining. I’ll do some research and maybe give it a try. This also has me wondering if I could get away with machining the living hinges out of the plastic.
I love the feel of a leather or fabric case but I see your point about having a raw fabric edge. Good news is that I am using all non-woven materials that produce an edge about as clean as an Apple Smart Cover. I imagined that the edge could be covered in some sort of rubber or hard Silicone so I spent some time playing with coatings or dips. After trying a few experiments with the goop, I had a hard time imagining a clean, cheap and easy way to precisely coat a complicated edge. Any ideas?
Thanks,
