Universal Telescope Mobile Phone Mount

thingiverse

Needed a mobile phone mount that would fit my and my friends phones. Did not really like the mounts already here (sorry guys!). So this is my go at creating one. This is a version 1.0 and I'm already thinking about some improvements for next update. It works fine with my "First Scope" telescope and on the pictures with Celestron 9mm Wide Angle Eyepiece - the default lenses that came with this scope would probably need modification to the clip to fit over the focuser. for assembly: 6x M3 bolts and nuts 4x M3x30mm (or longer as seen on pictures) 1x M3x10mm (or longer - to attach the clip to the base) 1x M3x 12mm (or longer - for the clip tension) Print Settings Printer: HicTop Prusa I3 ABL Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.3 Infill: 30% Tetrahedral Notes: With ABS I used 5mm raft, with PLA it's not necessary. Post-Printing 3mm drill bit needed to clear the screw holes in the jaws How I Designed This Designed to fit bolts with hex head. As you can see on the pictures for easy adjustments i either used wing nuts or printed a knob from the following thing [ http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1245830 ] I actually like the printed knobs more as there is more contact surface. But reasonably sized washers will work well with wing nuts.
