A minimalist slim wallet for standard-size credit cards opened with a spring-loaded push button.
The wallet should fit 5-6 cards, depending on their thickness. Two appearance versions available: plain and with a diamond pattern.
Geared lever and spring provide a convenient way of opening the wallet with just one hand.
Heavily inspired by a great design by Kenigan: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2756488
Designed for good printability on low-quality printers.

Print instructions
No supports needed, should work with most printers and materials.
In case of any problems with tolerances on your printer, try scaling the rack element up or down a little.
The whole print consists of 4 elements: main frame, rack, lever and top. The wallet can be configured by choosing different models: with/without window, with/without diamond pattern, with/without a bearing for the lever.
For the spring, use standard automatic pen spring, if the spring force is too large, cut the spring to suit your needs.
If a version with a bearing is chosen, use a bearing with diameters: 10mm (external) x 3mm (internal) and a M3x6 setscrew (should screw in the frame tightly, if not use an adhesive to set the screw).
Glue the top and bottom parts together with a standard cyanoacrylate adhesive (e.g. Super Glue), preferably rather viscous one.
