Nintendo Switch Dock Wall Mount

Description

This is an angled Nintendo Switch Wall Mount. It allows you to stack multiple docks on top of each other while still being able to easily remove the Switch Units from the dock. Good if you own multiple Switches and want to get chargers off of tables/entertainment centers/etc. It will also hold the switch dock to the wall extremely securely and leave all ventilation ports, usb ports, and cable access 100% available. You can still charge items, plug in accessories, and play graphically taxing games without concern for heat warping the mounting material, or cooking your Switch. Have fun with it! **How To Secure It** To Answer the obvious question. You secure the two halves together with a Coat Hanger. Cut it to be a little less than the upper dock portion's width. File or clip the tip a little to round it (this prevents snagging) and turn the back down 90 degrees like an allen key to make it a pull tab. **Durability (TESTED WITH PETG!):** Tested with up to 60 pounds down and ~20-30 pounds away. I did not want to try more than that as the dock might break (instead of the mount). The PETG also gave it some good flex and the rounded corners and print orientation enabled flexing over cracking/layer separations to accommodate the stress. **Design considerations:** Cooling is **NOT** impeded in this mount at all. I made sure the dock mount only covers solid plastic parts and everywhere there is a hole or vent is completely open. As such, none of the USB ports are blocked either. So all the cable ports, LED in the front, etc is open and visible/usable. I also designed this to be Stack-able vertically so you can dock multiple switches in one place somewhat easily. Just leave enough space to remove the lower dock without having to take the entire upper dock mount off the wall. **Assembly instructions:** 1. Rest a level on the bottom half. and put two screws into the counter sunk holes to anchor it in place. The holes are countersunk with an 82 degree head (standard wood screws like Home Depot, Ace Hardware, Lowes, ETC will seat nicely). 2. Insert the switch dock into the top sleeve. 3. Lower it onto the wall mounted half. 4. Insert the Coat hanger from the right side (when facing the dock). ========================== Have fun with it. I designed it as a bit of a challenge and mostly because I could not find a dock that worked specifically the way I wanted. I hope it helps others who were looking for other options too. If you read this far, thanks! My first print I posted :)
