 etc................

How can one go about creating there own variations of iphone cases without using the websites (They dont give you enough options)

Im guessing these kind of cases are made of silicone or rubber usually. But where can you go to actually have one made.

Im not asking where to buy them from im more interested in how they are created (meaning manufacturing, materials, etc... What companies distribute them wholesale

i looked into this... you need to find an engineering place that states they can make alluminum or other type of prototypes or designs. You will have to create the look you want porbably on paper and then take it in to them and get a price quote. Problem is if you just want something done once they may charge you a lot as they may have to edite the design to meet their capabilities and since it is only a one time thing they may have a prob with that..


I was going to try this problem is that the ROI may not be worth it as new cases come out almost every other month and there is so many competitors that it is hard to get it off the ground and sell a good amount... you would have to pay in advanced and may not be able to sell the others.... if you can find one to do for yourself and it is a decent price then try it and let me know whats up.

side note just did a custom back skin.

suede with etched elephant print....
first try


second (i am using as my own... gettin better and thinking about selling some off)
