Description
Update: 8/12/2020 Completely redesigned in Fusion 360 most notable change is the locking mechanism is now easier to use thanks to the suggestion of Thingiverse user Ivankio Update: 12/8/2018 - Added locking mechanism to secure switch- Added switchrest-lock.stl (locking mechanism)- Modified switchrest-left and switchrest-right brackets- Added switchrest-complete.stl (all components ready to print in a single stl file, locks already scaled to fit) - Added new pictures Scale the locks down to 96% in your slicer and eliminate the need of post processing. I highly suggest you do some post processing on the locks either sand or file the portion that locks into the rails before using this or you will have a hard time getting them off and possibly break the side rails. Once you can insert/remove the locks easily proceed to insert your Switch. With these last changes I consider this completed and I don't plan on making further edits, suggestions are always welcomed. Enjoy. Update: 5/15/17 - Added SwitchRest and Switch logos- Added angled bracket so switch air intake has breathing room to prevent overheating- Added correct printing position for all STLs- Added SwitchRest-Left-Right STL contains both brackets ready to print in correct position I made this so my daughter could play the Nintendo Switch mounted to my cars headrest while we do road trips. This is my initial prototype which I made in 1 hour so I might be making a few revisions but this works really well, we recently used it on a 4 hour trip and it withstood all the bumps you normally have when driving on the highway at 70mph. I suggest you do a solid infill for best durability since these can be a bit tight when placing them on the switch and need a decent amount of force to be removed.
