Apple Watch Charge Stand

thingiverse

Needed to make an Apple Watch charging stand for my wife. This design reminded me of a vintage stand I have on hand, but it has its differences. To achieve great layer quality, print in the same orientation as I did. I used Simplify3D and applied supports only to the open hole and the watch hole - I believe this model could be printed without support. The raised guides inside the charger hole require a slight sanding to fit the charger snugly. Alternatively, I took a risk by heating the PLA with a lighter until it softened enough for me to push it in - I wouldn't recommend that approach, but it worked for me. Feel free to ask questions or share your tips.
