DragonTouch K10 (2019 Model) Wall Mount

thingiverse

I recently upgraded an old Amazon Fire 7 that was being used as a home automation panel to a DragonTouch K10 (2019). The upgrade allowed me to find a sleek wall mount that completely encloses and protects the tablet and wires. Since I have kids, I anticipate potential disasters and take preventive measures. After failing to find a suitable pre-made solution, I decided to design one from scratch. I've been using it for about five months now and only encountered one issue: when mounting, the top-right mount broke off, causing the end cap to slightly sag. When printed with an open right side, it closes slightly as it cools, and I screwed it down in that position. However, when forcing the tablet into place like a 200-pound gorilla, the mount broke; The break is visible in the last picture (if the pictures get re-ordered, it's the one with the mount and tablet with the end cap off). Despite this issue, the design still works and I have other projects to print, so I haven't bothered re-printing yet. Just be aware of the potential problem and take care when screwing it in for a successful installation. The DragonTouch K10 itself is a solid device that offers many features I look for in a personal tablet (easily rootable, HDMI out, GPS, stock Android, etc.). However, the built-in speaker is pretty disappointing. It's great for projects like this and would make an excellent everyday tablet if you aren't too particular about audio quality or plan to use headphones/HDMI out for media consumption. I'm limited by a 200mm build plate with an actual print area of ~190mm, so I had to compromise on the design. The main issue was using a USB ribbon cable for power instead of the cheapest solution.

As always, I'm not a professional designer. I can usually tinker with something that works for my needs. Please provide constructive criticism if necessary, but avoid being negative. Hope you find this mount useful! Have a nice day!
