Customizable LCD Monitor Stand

thingiverse

I'm thrilled to be done with my makeshift monitor stands made from 2x4s, so I designed this instead. My heat bed isn't big enough to print a single piece stand, which is why it prints in three pieces. You can use the dimensions I printed (200x170x125mm) or create your own size using the Customizer. My printer has some challenges with fitment. Holes are slightly small and pegs are slightly large. Use the Customizer to generate a set of interlock test parts to ensure that the full-size parts will fit nicely before wasting too much plastic filament. Measure and adjust the calibration value as needed. I used ABS, heating my bed to 120C to keep the print flat. I placed the parts on the heat bed at a 45-degree angle and printed them one at a time, but you could probably run a whole set at once if you're brave. They print upside-down with no support material or rafts. In the dimensions I used, the sides took about four hours each and the center support about two-and-a-half hours. Keep in mind that the Width should be set so that the rubber monitor feet fall on top of the sides to ensure a good fit. I'm very happy with these over my 2x4s. Unfortunately, Customizer only allows you to generate one .stl output at a time, so you'll need to run it a couple times to generate the side and support parts. UPDATE: I added a Print_Bed output that will generate all three parts needed together for printing. This is the best output format since you can then manipulate the parts as needed for your printer.
