2mm thicker hooks for Mechanical Grab Phone Stand and better nuts bolts

thingiverse

The original mechanical quick grab/release phone stand is awesome! so... upgrades time! Changes of my remix: THE HOOKS The original hooks are not long enough for my phone(an old vivo x9s), so I made the 3 parts with hooks(both arms and the rack) 2mm thicker. I have a feeling that the original length of the hooks is generally not enough for most phones with a case, so that's why I decided to post this 2mm longer version. THE SCREWS The original groove of the screws have a curved bottom, but I find it wasn't easy to rotate using a flat screwdriver, so I changed the groove to a complete rectangular shape. MODEL GLITCH Fixed the triangular dimple on the cylindrical wall of the stand bolt, it's a weak point. I actually didn't notice that when printing, but found out when they broke during tightening. Both of the screws have the dimple as well, but in their cases, the dimple is much less noticeable because they have a thinner cylindrical portion. LONGER BOLTS FOR TWO STAND LINKS And in the pictures of @sum_random 's remix he made for Samsung Galaxy Note 9, I saw he used 2 stand links for stableness, which I tried and found out it made the stand much more stable. That's smart! But of course, you need longer bolts for that, while I was fixing that dimple, I made it longer for this purpose and, with fitting nuts. Also, I find the original 5mm thick bolt head and nut are kind of hard to grip and rotate, so I also made them have 8mm thick heads. I provided 2 versions of bolts and 3 versions of nuts files, they all have the same parameters and fit each other, it's just the appearance is different, you can pair them any way you want. changelog: Apr 12 2021 - included Fusion 360 exported files: "arm for vivo x9s v3.f3d", "arm for vivo x9s v2.step". This is due to user request, though i'm sure whether or not these file can be called source files, and whether or not they have any help regarding further modification.
