Adjustable laptop, tablet, and document stand
prusaprinters
This is a multi-purpose adjustable stand for laptop computers, tablets, and other items. The project came about when being forced to work from home in the Covid-19 pandemic. Its configuration is very flexible, being tilt adjustable from -63 to +63 degrees from horizontal in 1 degree increments through a pair of pins that are inserted in a Vernier style set of holes. The stand height sets the screen approximately at a users viewing height when seated in an office chair at an ordinary table or desk (~28"/~70CM in height). It intends to align the height close to a computer monitor. The stand adjustability and accessories allow it to work with most laptop computers and tablets ranging from 7" to 16" in size. It has been tested on several Apple MacBooks and iPads, as well as Dell and Lenovo laptops, assorted tablets, Kindle Fire, etc. Older laptops with thicker chassis require the stop plate extensions to ensure they don't slide off. It also works well as a document stand (print 2!). Included in the files are 2 document extenders, short and long, to ensure documents up to 14"/36cm long are supported. Included are files to print snap in TPU bumpers which serve as anti-slip pads. These are 10mm in diameter and 3mm tall, very similar to pads available in local hardware stores, or on Amazon and E-Bay. Thin anti-slip sheets can also be used. The uploaded files include instructions, images, ".stl" and ".3mf" files, as well as G Code for Mk3S and MK3S/MMU2S (Single) mode printing in PETG, and TPU for the bumpers.
