it actually got to be dangerous to try to bend / snap it, i was applying so much force i was concerned that shards might fly off. applying a *lot* of pressure - enough to make marks on my fingers - only bent it about 2-3mm out of shape.
Did you also try some fall tests, because that's more likely to happen in real life. Especially as the case design is not monilithic (if I remember correctly), the shock forces will get applied to the weakest parts.
Hey, it's OK if you actually didn't ;-)
You could test with pieces that had 3d printing problems, so as not to destroy any good ones.
And then label the project as being Eco-consciously tested !
