Adjustable Phone Stand (Fully Printable, No Supports)

thingiverse

I designed this to be an adjustable smartphone stand that you can very finely adjust the viewing angle of your phone or small tablet. It's meant to be small and portable. It may not suit everyone's needs but I wanted something that I could easily travel with. NOTE: The "flat screw" is a faster print than the "Alternate screw" but the alternate screw prints more cleanly. You only need to print one or the other. To assemble: 1. Slide the screw all the way in to the stand. 2. Turn the screw until it is fully seated against the frame. 3. Install the snap ring over the smooth part of the screw, against the inside of the frame, as depicted in the photos. Note: This design can be scaled up to suit large tablets if you so choose. UPDATE 03AUG2017: I have added a "Deep" version that should accommodate phones with thicker cases on them. UPDATE 17JUL2017: I added an alternate screw design that prints on it's end. This should be easier to insert but will take much longer to print and won't be quite as strong. Strength shouldn't be needed for this design anyway.
