Description

The Desk Edge Socket Holder V1 is a 3-part desk mount designed to hold a power socket securely on the edge of a table.
It consists of a cable-side bracket, a socket-side bracket, and a clamping screw with a printed thread.
This first version features a 45° mounting angle, making it ideal for a clean and ergonomic setup.

The mount is designed for sockets with dimensions of 45 mm (width) × 40 mm (height) or 46 mm (width) × 25 mm (height)  and fits tabletop thicknesses up to 35 mm.
If you need a different size or fit, feel free to contact me — I’m happy to adjust the model to your specifications.

 

Printing details:

  • Printed with PLA (other materials possible)
  • 0.2 mm layer height recommended
  • 20–30 % infill
  • No supports required (depending on printer orientation)

Assembly:
Simply insert both brackets around the socket, align them on the table edge, and tighten the clamping screw until the mount is securely fixed.

 

Update (October 19, 2025):

  • The screw thread tolerance has been adjusted from +0.2 mm to +0.1 mm for improved fit.
  • A cable-side bracket with a cable slot has been added to allow easier insertion of the power strip plug.

Update (October 21, 2025):

  • All files updated with geometry adjustments and optimizations:
    • Fixing screw_V01.03
    • Cable-side bracket_V01.02
    • Opposite bracket_V01.02
    • Cable-side bracket with cable slot_V01.02

Very nice idea. Made a .3mf profile and printed in black PLA. Tried this with a common socket bought in the Netherlands. The block itself fits but the plug doesn't. Guess most European plugs are too big for the hole to fit through. Also: the holes for the screws are a tiny bit too big. The screw turns but you can feel it wiggle a bit. Mabye someone (or the creator them self) could slightly alter the tollerance for more strenght.

Thanks for the great feedback I'm still quite new to the topic so every tip helps me I have changed the thread tolerance from +0.2mm to +0.1mm According to my test the clamping force is now higher In addition I have uploaded a second variant of the holder with a cable slot to make it easier to thread the cable

Hi, I thought the idea was great, it was exactly what I was looking for. However, my power strip had slightly unconventional dimensions, so I had to adapt it a bit (40mm x 50mm). And while I was at it, I changed a few other things: - I simply mirrored the side with the cable entry, allowing the strip to be attached on the left and right, depending on where you want the cable to exit. This makes it more flexible to use, saves some filament, and is still stable. - Then I removed the bottom from the triangles, which allows me to thread a USB cable, for example, and also saves some filament. - Since my desk top is only 8mm thick, the construction with the screws was too large and wobbly for me. Therefore, I replaced the whole thing with a "clamp variant". Now almost everything is different from your original model, yet it is the basis and for that I wanted to thank you very much!

Following up on your offer.. Can you do a map that takes a strip 46mm high and 25mm deep? Thanks Allan

Very good model overall The problem is the socket is too large for the model I scaled it to 106 percent and the model now fits my socket

The UK plug block is spot on. However.. Can you supply me a file for a longer screw, perhaps an extra 10mm? Thanks Allan
