This is the Pendrive Case by Bramesh501, but way smaller. Most normal USB Flashdrives still fit in. I put the USB stick that comes with the Ultimaker 3 inside and it fits perfectly. I Suggest you check if the USB you want to put in fits. You can also buy the drive I used which is a Verbatim Silver drive: https://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-Metal-Executive-Silver-98749/dp/B017JJSJZM

You'll probably need to sand down the cap to fit in properly if you print with a 0.4 nozzle. I printed again with a 0,25 nozzle and the cap fits perfectly.

This is printable with a FDM printer. You'll need a low layer height for a decent result. I have no experience with resin.

I used Cura to slice the model.

EDIT: The new file (GTX Thumbdrive without holes) has a smooth top surface and is better optimized for printing. The holes and pins are also removed as they have limited purpose and do not print well.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Ultimaker

Printer:

Ultimaker 3

Resolution:

0.25 nozzle, 0.1 layer height

Infill:

I did 20%. Doesn't matter much. 100% would be stronger.

Notes:

I recently printed again with a 0.25 nozzle, the letters on the side are better readable. The top will look better with a lower layer height.

Post-Printing

To finish the Stick, I sanded the pins and the cap to fit. I also sanded the top a little to smooth everything. I painted the Flashdrive Case black, silver/chrome and the letters green. (search gtx 1080 TI for the Original design). Finished painting with a protection coat. Then I glued the the flashdrive inside with a hot glue gun.
