20220317 UPDATE: Step files now included.

20180116:MacBook charger cables break very easily, and the price for a new charger is high. Although there are replacement wires that can be bought cheap and installed, the design of the original case makes it impossible to install the case back after opening, forcing us to use tape or glue which is not so strong and doesn't really look good.

so I made this case for my 65w charger of the late 2012 13.3 inch MacBook Pro A1425 to replace the old case.

it still keeps the ability to swap the power adaptor for different power sockets and the flaps click into place.

this might also fit other models' chargers but I can't be sure as I don't have the parts to test it with.

you will need 7 m3*25 bolts to install this case. and the case will end up a bit bigger than the original case as I have to leave space for the bolts.
