This is a grippy case for the Tamagotchi Uni, in variations with and without a carabiner, and held together with either zipties or threaded inserts.
Design ideas
The general idea is that the Uni is already pretty durable, being made out of thick plastic, so this design focuses on making it easier to carry and harder to drop.
The carabiner versions align the tamagotchi upside down so that you can play it easily while it's still attached to a belt loop.
The open back means you can still use the built-in lanyard attachment point, too (and you still get to see the cool translucent plastic).
Printing it
I recommend using PETG for the carabiner versions rather than PLA, as it'll be less brittle and last longer.
Fastening it
Ziptie versions
For the ziptie versions, use zipties which are about 3mm wide in the cable part. The closure can be a bit bigger depending upon how you cut it off.
Threaded insert versions
For the threaded insert version, I used these short ¼" 20 inserts https://www.mcmaster.com/94459A370/ which are both 0.312 inches deep and wide. Keep in mind that you will probably also need a soldering iron and a tip for it which matches the inserts you want to use.
I used these screws https://www.mcmaster.com/92220A181/ which have a 0.35" wide head, and a ¼" shaft. The screws could be a bit longer, and the head could be a bit deeper, but there isn't room for a head much wider than that without modifying the design.
Threaded insert tip for this design: I recommend keeping the carabiner clip opened while putting in the threaded inserts - otherwise the heat will mold it into the closed shape a bit and it won't stay shut quite as well.
⚠ Disclaimer
The safety of your items is your responsibility - I have been using 3d printed cases, mounts, and carabiners to carry things for years and have had no major issues - but keep in mind that this case does not guarantee safety. It's mostly designed to make the device easier to carry. Again, I recommend PETG for carabiners rather than PLA to avoid snapping.
