Mic Stand Holder for Phone (Samsung Galaxy S7 in case and others)

thingiverse

I needed to do some "hands-free" filming with my phone, so I made this so that I could hold my phone with a mic stand while I was filming. It was designed to work with a Galaxy S7 inside an Incipio phone case, but if you adjust the X and/or Y size of the model before printing you should be able to get it to work with your phone as well. Currently it has been confirmed to also work with a Pixel 2 in case and Galaxy S9 as well. Suggestions: * Only print the first couple millimeters of layers, just enough to get the shape of the "claw", then stop the print and test it against your phone. If it doesn't fit right, change your print scale and try again. * Use at least 3 shells/outlines, preferably enough that the "arms" are made entirely of lines rather than infill. This will help prevent them from cracking/breaking off with use. * Print with filaments that have some flex to them before they break, as opposed to snapping with pressure: ABS, PET/PETG, and NinjaTek Armadillo have all been tested and work great. * If you are printing with a "less flexible, more crackable" filament like PLA, try printing with your nozzle fan turned off; the design is made to print very easily, so the lack of fan can help increase the layer adhesion and overall strength of the part.
