Features:

Universal Mounting: Easily attaches to almost any desk – no drilling or special tools required.
Flexible Rotation: The swiveling support surface adapts to your movements and working style for maximum freedom.
Customize Padding: Cork, Plywood, Felt or TPU. Choose which material fits the best to you.
Elegant Aesthetics: With its modern, minimalist look, the armrest blends seamlessly into any office or home workspace.
Space-Saving & Practical: When not in use, the armrest can be conveniently rotated to the side, leaving your desk surface uncluttered.

Stability

Please be realistic. This product has quite a long lever arm. It is designed to handle normal loads (with print direction and infill optimized), but you definitely should not put your full body weight on it. You can tell yourself that the lattice structure insert adds stability — but honestly, it’s probably printed more because it’s cool that today’s printers can make such shapes, rather than because it truly improves the strength.

Assembly

Easy assembly. No purchase parts needed. Most parts are designed for a pressfit. If it should be too loose you can add some glue. The cork, plywood, felt or TPU applications need to be glued into place.

Customization

This product can be customized in many different ways. The inserts can be decorated with names, logos, or unique patterns — or you can simply let the material itself speak for its quality and appearance.

Oh my friend this torque is more than your small plastic vise can handle

That was my first thought! Very beautifully designed! But probably very delicate…

PLA is not the answer for this model.

@pierca

I think, if its printed on its side it could vastly hold the weight. id bet on it lol

@MakerMiker

Hey! Printed your design but the mount is a little too weak. Maybe increasing the surface area of body 45 where it is contact with the table might help with that. Also increasing the thickness on the top of that part would mean less infill would be needed and increase strength. Im messing around with some different infill amounts and types so see if I can get your original to work. Also with body 11 (the screw), you could redesign the end of the screw to hold another printable part that increases the surface area like those plates you see on monitor arms. If you added a V2 of those parts, it means I could just reprint those parts rather than having to do the whole thing again and waste material and time lol! Other than that, great Version one! just those two parts need a little more work and ill reprint them and try it again! Btw I printed in PETG and TPU for the inserts.

Hey thanks for the detailed feedback. i really appreachiate that. yes i am working on an improved version at the moment. i noticed the same weak spot at the top and added some thickness and modifide the geometry a little, to give it more strength. adding the extra part to the screw to increase the surface area is also implemented in v2 already. i also cut the sides of the screw to that it can be printed horizontaly for more strenght. the arm rest itself will and also the cylindrical parts will stay the same. contrary to what others have said that did not print this part the cylindrical parts are not the weak point. thanks again!

@MakerMiker

Replying to @janberrydesign :

No problem! I have had no problems with the screw part in terms of strength and I did torque it a bit more than I should have just to test the claims but no issues there! I do appreciate the change to the screw to mitigate any issues with that part and doing a V2, I will look out for that part! I have found NO issues with the cylindrical parts, so for those reading my comment I can confirm no issue. Maybe cheap PLA or wet PETG might be different but I used PETG which was fully dried. I will print out the new parts when available and I will give you an update!

look great! update after printing all prices and assembling it, I made this for my husband's desk at work, I had him to try it and one for the arms Crack, I think this area needs to be thicker for more manly 💪. Im still new to learning how to use my printer, therefore, can someone give me insight how to thicken this layer shown below. It still seem fragile with the inner support piece. should I be using a certain filament, im using ERYONE STANDARD PLA

Hey thanks for the detailed feedback, i am working on a improved version, where i made the part at the top stronger and modified the screw component aswell. the rest will stay the same so you can reuse parts. i will let you know when i uploaded the new version.

what is this? this is probably the wrong picture right? i do not recognize any geometry of the product?

o i am so sorry il check that

@cag196692

I love these people who haven’t printed it and therefore haven’t used it telling you definitively that it’s not strong enough despite having exactly 0 idea how strong the design is or isn’t. surely the same people that will screech about how PLA can’t handle UV exposure despite others time and time again showing PLA prints that have been outside for years on end with little to no degradation, for example. or screeching about how pla can’t bear loads and is so fragile it’ll break if you look at it wrong or creep under load. my spool shelving holding about 10 kilos of filament per shelf with each shelf having 2 small PLA brackets bearing the load for 4 or 5 years now, despite the designer and random people claiming that pla absolutely 100% without exception will not work for these shelves. one guy even going on and on about how they’re a mAtErIaLs sCiEnTiSt blah blah blah sure, design could be too fragile to use, but I’d rather hear that from someone who’s actually used it.

@SheelaSunShy

Well, those who are smart learn from the mistakes of others and don't print anything that will break

The design is great for people who have problems with their arms not positioned correctly, great addition. Those who suffer with cubital syndrome.

@Entusiasta_3D

A wireless base for iPhone was still possible and pleasant, but now for an armrest it doesn't seem reliable

The designer has replied

@janberrydesign

working on that already, but it will not be mountable to the table. it is stable enough, i have tested it with several prototypes. it depends how you handle it. if you just rest your arm on it it is fine. if you want to sit on it, it will break.
