Ultimate Music Folder Holder for Music Stands

The design features a modular "Clipper" (clamp) system. Depending on the diameter of your music stand pole, you can print the specific clipper size that fits your gear perfectly.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

You need to stop the print at 11.6mm (layer 91 at 0.2mm layer height) and insert the M5 nut into the platform.

Hardware Needed

To assemble the holder, you will need the following hardware:

• 4x M4 x 20mm screws: Used to secure the four support arms.
• 1x M4 x 12mm screw: Used for the main hinge mechanism.
• 1x M5 x 30mm screw: Used to tighten the Clipper onto the music stand pole.
• 1x M5 Nut
• Optional: A small piece of 5mm or 5.5mm heat-shrink tubing (or a small O-ring/rubber gasket) to place on the end of the M5 screw. This prevents the screw from falling out when the clamp is fully opened.

Assembly & Printing Tips

• Clipper Selection: Measure the diameter of your music stand tube before printing. Choose the Clipper file that matches your diameter for a snug fit.
• Material: I recommend using PLA for all parts.
• Infill: Use at least 20-30% infill for the Platform and the Clipper and 6 Wall Loops for arms to ensure they can handle the forces.

Assembling

Tiny numbers are embossed into the arms and base to facilitate assembly.
