I posted here a bit ago with zero 3d printing experience. You guys helped me mash this case together. I printed it, attached it to my phone, and it seems to work. It has a magnetic ring that I bought from quadlock, but it fits in the case, so it effective has both quadlock and magsafe capabilities. I reinforced the attachment points with 3m transfer tape, and it is solid.

My next project to print (which someone already has made) is a mod to convert the quadlock bicycle mount into a wireless charger.

Thanks all!

I'm very happy to see this community seems to be thriving here, and im impressed with how many people quickly engaged me with ideas on how to mash two things together. I've abstained from the old site since last May time-frame, and I'm honestly happy with the quality of interactions I've had here.

Congrats! Consider posting your designs somewhere else than Thingiverse. Printables is a popular choice, but there are others.

Thanks! I'll at it when I get time. I really hadn't heard of other sites besides thingiverse, and I am yet unaware of any nuances, issues or controversies about it.
