Description

Rest your book or tablet on this convenient stand, allowing you to keep your hands free while cooking, working, or studying. This is a completely print-in-place design, with the exception of the two small articulating arms which are designed with a bit of flex in them so that they can be snapped in post-print.

The model is designed to fold flat, so that it can be easily transported in a bag or slid into a space on a shelf. When opened up it then offers a few different adjustable angles that it can hold a book or tablet at, or you can extend the support arm past the notches for a low angle viewing mode. The arms then have some intentional slotting built into the pivot joints so that they can be optionally used to loosely lock into place at various positions to help hold the pages of a book.

In addition to the standard model (which is shown in most of the pictures), there are also versions that include three different sized plaques just above the center area. These allow you to conveniently customize your stand with text in the slicer, such as in the following picture:

@KenPrint3D

weird.. mine works fine as others did too, what kind of material did you use ? and wich brand. thanks

@93tstang

I used overture matte PLA. looked fine just seemed the tolerance was off for the hinges. I will try again with another filament, to see if I can get it to work.

@Teck3D

I had the same problem and I dried the filament and printed 4 that came out perfect. Wet filament is a thing. My filament was new from Bambu and it still needed to be dried.

It came out perfect in PLA. All the hinges move, feels very strong and rigid. The arms were a bit too rigid to bend to get in to their joints, so I used a hot air gun to soften the plastic, pushed them in and then used my fingers to spread the plastic arms back out as it cooled. They work well.

@T_Deebs

I had the same issue, but I just used a pair of pliers to squeeze them in

A very nice tablet stand. I printed mine in PETG and it came our very nice. Will use it to help me while learning Fusion 360 in 30 days (or so). Thank you!
