Iphone charger holder

thingiverse

This is just a silly little design I did, to help with my phone's finicky-ness about charge cords. Basically, I've only ever been able to find one charge cord that actually makes contact with the port in my phone enough to charge it. All other cords stop charging unless I hold them at a specific angle, and holding my phone to charge it got tedious real quick. So I hashed out a design that would fit over my phone, with a surface at the bottom to hold the charger in the correct position for me (then I did a pattern on the whole thing because patterns are cool, lol). It worked like a dream, so I thought I'd share the design on the off-chance anyone else has had similar problems with finicky phones. Keep in mind, you will most likely need to resize the file to fit over your phone or phone case. Open it in Meshmixer, and use the 'measure' tool under analysis, to measure the interior dimensions of the file. Then measure your phone. Use the 'transform' tool under edit, to tweak the width and depth of the file until the measurements match. Save, export, print.
