You don't sand your 3d prints?

Those are grip enhancement surface features.

No, around the keyboard.

You mean the small gaps in the filament?

Those won't go away with sanding unless you go really deep

And personally for a prototype sanding is a waste of time. Get something working as you expect, then roughly design a case, iterate the case, finalize the case design, then finally worry about surface finish.

What the other person said. This is a prototype and looks to be printed with thicker layers than normal (.2mm is the usual.) to save time.

Actually, those are speed lines. It makes you type faster.

I'm still planning to do some projects with it. But other projects always come in the way.

So it's not common to make the lines away, at least on surfaces?

edit: ok, that still seems to be a prototype.
