I've now uploaded the newer version on Thingiverse as well: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2970246
Update 17/11/03:
Since it has come up in the comments I'm going to use that as an excuse to shamelessly promote my grip for the Original 3DS Xl

Update 17/07/17:
New version is now available: http://cults3d.com/en/game/ergonomic-grip-for-3ds-v2-original-3ds. This version will remain available for free on Thingiverse but if you'd like to support my endeavours then consider buying the new version.
As an aside; whilst I don't have any personal interest in altering the grip for other versions of the 3DS/DS, it's not out of the question if there's enough interest, so do let me know.

With some minor sanding this grip will fit a DS Lite.

Yet another ergonomic grip for the least popular iteration of a handheld... I'm really quite happy with this one, it's much simpler and more elegant than the one I made for Vita. No retention peace or anything like that, just plain old friction to hold it in place. The only thing covered-up is the SD-slot but that really shouldn't bother anyone.
I used superglue to put the peaces together and some adhesive pads for a bit of extra friction. I highly recommend water sanding with (at least) grits 120 and 240.
