Desk Organizer with Phone and Writing Utensil Holder

thingiverse

My main goal in this product was to make a dense phone holder with easy writing utensil storage that also has room for a charger. My reason was when I do video calls with teachers I either choose charging my phone or being visible. With this however, I could do both since it has a built in slot for charging. The main problems I had in designing this were refining style, usability, and versatility in one product. I wanted all phones to work with it in both portrait and standard mode, as well as looking nice. If I were to redesign this, I would make several different designs optimized for a few specific phones so that it can stop having the issue of jack of all trades, master of none. 3D printing makes a relatively complex and hard to build design into a simple, industrialized process.
