A clamshell case includes a case bottom, at least one modular intermediate layer, and a lid. The intermediate layer has a coupling slot in an upper back thereof and a pivot block at a lower back thereof. The pivot block is held in a pivot slot of the case bottom, and the intermediate layer is pivotally fitted over the case bottom through at least one pivot or a pivot portion. The lid has a pivot block held in the coupling slot of the intermediate layer and is pivotally fitted over the intermediate layer through at least one pivot or a pivot portion. The costs to manufacture the clamshell case, which is assembled with a specific number of modular intermediate layers stacked on one another as required, can be reduced, because pivot blocks in all modular intermediate layers are of equal height and identical axial position.
