Gameboy Advance case maintenance stand

thingiverse

This stand comes in handy to repair or mod Gameboy Advance handheld consoles. Doing repairs usually requires to take apart the whole system it can be difficult to put it all back together. When placing the device on face down on a flat surface, the buttons and silicon pad are pushed up, which in turns means that you have to hold things in place as you are screwing everything together. Using this stand, the device is held in place by the frame and the buttons are left "floating", allowing for a nice maintenance/modding/repair experience. It may not be required for anyone looking to do a bit of ocasional cleaning of their console, but if your are looking into repairing a lot of them or doing some modding, it can be quite convenient. Also, you will be less likely to scratch the plastic screen cover, as it would not be touching any surface ## **Update (2021-03-21)** I have made some adaptations to the model: - It was a bit too snug in places. While the model is still usable, a bit more space went a long way making this stand just a bit more comfortable. - I have made some other adaptations that allow the GBA to be also placed face up
