Folding Pocket Tablet/Phone Stand

thingiverse

This is a Tablet/Phone stand designed to fold up flat and be carried in a person's pocket. It doesn't matter which way it is unfolded, as the top and bottom are completely symmetrical. It is a complete redesign of my old (unpublished) stand that had issues. Each part will need to be rotated 90 degrees, if someone could tell me how to get Autodesk Inventor to stop making everything sideways, I would appreciate it. Read instructions for further info, and please tell me if it works! The problem with the old one was that is broke too easily, and it also couldn't hold anything without collapsing. (EDIT) I tried this with my Nexus 7, and it doesnt really work that well. I will be updating this when I have the time. Instructions Needed quantity: Frame: 1 Arm: 2 Backplate: 1 Clip: 1 Peg: 6 (Optional) The stand is assembled using the supplied pegs, but they are somewhat fragile, so they can be substituted for 1/2in long by 1/8in diameter machine screws. Print at 0.15-0.25mm layer thickness, 0.20mm reccomended, and use touching bed support because the thin parts of the clip and frame are slightly smaller than the flat surfaces.
