Foldable Magnetic Laptop & Tool Holder

This foldable laptop and tool holder is built for serious portability and strength. It collapses flat for easy storage, fits comfortably in a backpack, and deploys in seconds to create a stable laptop stand or tool holder wherever you’re working.

Despite its compact footprint, the holder is engineered to securely support laptops and gear up to 8 lbs. Integrated tool holes keep screwdrivers and other common hand tools organized and within easy reach, making it ideal for mobile workstations, workshops, and on-site jobs.

A magnetic retention system combined with a steel hinge delivers excellent stability and a premium, industrial feel—comparable to retail laptop holders that sell for $300+, at a fraction of the cost.

Print & Hardware Requirements

• Optimized for ASA
• Printed flat on an H2D
• Estimated print time: ~17.5 hours (ASA, printed flat on an H2D)
• PLA is likely strong enough for typical use but has not been formally tested
• Required hardware:
  • 4× 2" diameter, 35 lb magnets
  • 1× 150 mm long, 10 mm steel rod (hinge)
  • 4× M3×5 mm screws and lock nuts

  • uxcell a14021800ux0716 – 10 mm × 300 mm straight shank twist drill bit

A long 10 mm drill bit is recommended for cleaning out the hinge channel. If needed, the 10 mm rod itself can be chucked into a drill and spun slowly—using friction heat to achieve a precise, snug fit.

This holder is perfect for technicians, makers, and professionals who want a rugged, portable solution that performs like high-end commercial products—without the high-end price tag.
