Universal Nintendo Switch Holder

thingiverse

I mostly use my Nintendo Switch when traveling long distances. For example on an airplane, backseat of the car or in a bus. And I am always struggling to place the screen at a location comfortable to look at, especially if a friend joins me for some local multiplayer matches. This is why I started thinking about an universal way to mount the Nintendo Switch. After some failed experiments with hooks, I came across this [paracord tensioner](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1486048) design from [Cadfinger](https://www.thingiverse.com/Cadfinger/about) and with his approval I created (and shared) this design for an Universal Nintendo Switch Holder. I also used the joy-con slide design from [takumus's design](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2250417) and I tweaked it a little to make it a tighter fit. This design consists out of two clips that attach to the joycon slides. The clips have paracord ropes attached, which can be brought under tension with a little help from [Cadfinger's](https://www.thingiverse.com/Cadfinger/about) design. This way the Nintendo Switch can be attached to a large number of objects, as can be seen in the photo's. It is possible to use the ropes straight, as I did with the car sun visor mounting. Or crossed, as with the car headrest mounting. I haven't had the chance to test it in an airplane yet, but I am quite certain it is possible to attach it at the inboard screen or tabletop. Required items: 2x M3 nut 2x M3 screw 6mm 2x 3mm paracord +/- 60cm 2x small pieces of rubber band (optional) For me this design is working like a charm. If you printed this, please post a make with a picture of you using it, as I would really like to see some creative applications :D I will add some steps and pictures of assembly if necessary.
