DESCRIPTION:
Meet "Gripper" – the cool phone buddy that's as funky as it is functional. With its fun shape, Gripper isn't just a looker – it's got moves! This modern holder is like a flexible friend for your phone, using a clever design that's all about being bendy without any complicated springs or rubber stuff.

Gripper's shape isn't just for show – it's the secret sauce. It's not picky about what phone you throw at it; it just hugs your device snugly, thanks to its special flexi-magic. No more wrestling with springs or fiddly bits – Gripper keeps it simple, making sure your phone stays safe and sound in style. Say hello to Gripper, where having a good grip has never been this cool!

Use it in any orientation as you need - Horizontal, vertical or even diagonal if you wish.

Whether it's your workspace, kitchen, shower or a cozy nook, Gripper lets you hang it anywhere you fancy by just swapping out the hanger and keeping the "Gripper" as is.

Test print details (Prints shown in the image)

• Printer - Bambulab X1C Carbon
• Print plate - Bambulab Smooth PEI Plate / High Temp Plate
• Glue - Bambulab Liquid Glue
• Material - Bambulab PETG - Transparent
  • I would suggest to print this model in PETG or ABS since PLA is brittle and might not give a good result.
  • PETG and ABS have a better flexibility than PLA.
• The test print had a really good snug fit both for the phone holder grip as well as the locking attachment which holds the overall assembly.
  • Please let me know if the fit you get is too loose or too tight, I can tweak the dimensions for you.
  • This could be due to difference in filaments, temperatures and the nozzles.
    

Details of print profiles

I have used 100% infill to get a good grip and tweaked the design to balance the flexibility. Therefore, try to print this using 100% infill and also let me know in the comments if you get a better result in a different infill %.

• Standard 0.2mm profile
• Bottom shell layer to 5 from 3
