Desk Widget

thingiverse

This desk widget features slots for holding notepads of various sizes, a pencil cup, and a business card holder attached at the end. Designed as two separate pieces, this unit is necessary due to its large size exceeding my printer's capabilities. I had to print the longer piece diagonally in order to accommodate it within the printer's space. I conducted some experiments with varying wall thicknesses. The current design boasts thin walls that flex noticeably when printed using PLA. Nevertheless, it remains sturdy enough for holding paper and pens. Additionally, I attempted a version with 2mm thick walls, which resulted in a significantly more robust structure but used an excessive amount of filament.
