iPhone earbud holder

thingiverse

I use my iPhone earbuds in my computer, but i'm tired of having them lying on the floor or desk when not in use. So I designed this simple holder, that clips onto the 5mm connector, and allows me to easily hang the earbuds on the computer. Nice and organized :-) They even work with the cheap copies of iPhone earbuds, hence the red color on the picture - but it is tested on the original white ones aswell - nice and tight fit. Note: The holder is upside down in the computer-picture - the "horns" are supposed to be on the bottom, leaving the clip-opening visible on the top - but they work upside down too, as you can see. It just looks nicer when they are positioned correctly, I think :-) Instructions I printed mine with support under the cylindrical clip, but it's most likely not nessesary. I recommend sliding the wire through the clip opening first, then inserting the connector backwards (one end of the clip is slightly smoothed, to allow for easier insertion in the clip.) Also, push on the connector, don't pull on the wire - It's a thin and fragile wire, even on the original Apple earbuds.
