Portable Card-sized Phone Stand

Portable Card-sized Phone Stand

Description

<h3>Note:</h3> This is a remix of a model which has been remixed by plenty of people. See the creator and the other remixers below. Thanks to everyone that has improved this model to what it is today. The model I remixed was made by jackw01. <h3>About</h3> This is a phone stand that is print-in-place, easily portable, and made to be the size of a credit card. It fits nicely inside a wallet, at only 2mm thick, but it is a very nice "tool" to use anywhere where you do not want to have a bulky or visible phone stand at all times. This can be hidden away pretty much anywhere. It can be used in both portait and landscape mode, the angle can be adjusted, adn the snap mechanisms work great My contribution here is small, but there was something I think I could improve on. Except for this small issue I am about to explain, this model is pretty much perfection for being fully 3D-printed. <h3>Problem</h3> The problem I experienced was that the "legs" or "pegs" could go down below the main body, making it more difficult to fold and use this little tool. This is because the hole where the pegs are printed, are too large, allowing for the pegs to pass through to the other side of the main body (see the red circles on the last image for better context). I am sure this can be changed by printer settings alone to get this fixed (possibly with increased layer height), but since my printer is well calibrated and it still wouldn't work. <h3>Solution</h3> The distance between these pegs and the main body has now been decreased. It is still possible to print in place, but now the folding part can only be unfolded upon one side, as it was intended to do. I also altered some of the surfaces to make the model more sleek.
