Print-in-place folding phone/tablet stand with 2 snap-lock positions
Description
*This is a work in progress. I am away from my printer. When I can finally print this, I'll update the description.* This phone stand / tablet stand includes a snap-lock mechanism for two opening positions, depending on whether the device is mounted in portrait or landscape orientations. It is also printed in place as a single fully-assembled part. The included "generic_phone_stand.stl" should fit most smartphones. The file "thick_phone_stand.stl" is for big heavy smartphones like my Ulefone Armor 11T. Just three parameters are needed to adjust for your device: length, width, and thickness. You can also adjust the tilt angle and the two opening angles. If you need to adjust the parameters, **I recommend using the Customizer in OpenSCAD instead of the Customizer on Thingiverse.** Set the "display" setting to "assembly" to view the device in both portrait and landscape orientations. You may need to adjust the narrow opening angle for best fit, depending on the width of your device, but the defaults should work fine in most cases. To speed up preview in OpenSCAD, set the "rmink" parameter in the "Advanced" section to zero, which removes all the bevels. Otherwise set it to 1 for printing. This is one iteration on my way to making a mount for my phone that includes an electromagnetic charger, which I need because normal angle-mount chargers make my phone go crazy when in landscape orientation.
