Phone Stand - Industrial

Model

A phone stand to go along with the Headphone stand I made! A few people had suggested this, so figured why not?

Model is featured in Bambu PLA Matte Charcoal, and Bambu Iridium Gold Metallic for the main print. For the second print, it is featured in Bambu Charcoal and Polymaker Muted White.

[Update 1]

I added a step file for the main phone holder, to the raw files, to make it easier to adjust for other sized phones/devices that don't fit into the holder as it is now! If you modify the phone holder portion, please share! You can include the modified holder as a new print profile (No need to donate points, you did the tweak!), or if you'd prefer, you can just post it as it's own object. Just send me a link, and I'll add it in the description here to help make sure people find it.

[Update 2]

I added a print profile that provides a variation on the holder part, adding in holes on the bottom to better allow for a speakers/mic to work without interference, as a user had requested one.

Thanks to o.0jack for the a1 mini profile

rakibby has provided a version of the holder that's a little deeper (17mm!) so if you've got a thicker phone, check out rakibby's print profile! 

KYZ Design has made us a TPU Sock to help keep the stand in place. They look great and match the style! 

[Tools & Assembly]

Like the Headphone stand, the cell phone stand is pretty easy. You'll need the following hardware and tools.

I designed this to use M3 socket cap screws.

Hardware Needed:

I use screws from Bambu's Makersupply, and mainly design around those. However, you can purchase self tapping screws from amazon if that's easier for you. I'd recommend an assortment like this Amazon US, or Amazon US.)

• M3x12 - 4 (used for the feet)
• M3x25 - 3 (Used to connect the swing arm to the stand, and the phone holder to the swing arm)
• M3x30 - 1 (Used for the knob for the swing arm)
• M3xNuts x 9 (The knob makes use of two nuts!)

Tools Needed:

• Hex Driver
• Drill bit for clearing holes

Start by drilling out the holes in the feet and knob. These holes were partially blocked to get a cleaner print. All the other holes should be sized that a M3 screw can fit through without being too tight, but things like variation in filament properties might make the holes tight, so if you can't freely push a screw through the holes in the frame, clear them out with an appropriately sized drill too.

Next, Prepare the knob! We'll feed a M3x30 screw through the hole and through a nut that'll be embedded on the other side of the knob. Tighten it down!

Now we'll assemble the main frame! There's embedded slots for all of the M3 nuts, so go ahead and prepare by putting all the nuts in place. Next, we'll install the feet, as once the holder and swing arm are on, it can obstruct access to the screws for the front feet. Use M3x12 screws for the feet! For the swing arm, attach the two phone holder sides using M3x25 screws. Attach the arm to the base using a M3x25mm screw, but make sure not to over tighten it as we don't want the hing to be too stiff! Lastly, install the knob through the guide and swing arm and tighten it down!
