Glasses Perch On Monitor

thingiverse

Perch your glasses to sit atop your monitor. Prescription eyeglasses are now available online for around $10, making it sensible to keep a pair at every computer setup. This is a convenient spot to store your computer glasses when not in use or your everyday glasses when you need them. Every monitor differs in thickness and angle compared to the screen, so customization is necessary. Use the provided customizer to adjust the design to fit your specific monitor. You can create a test profile that's just wide enough to check if it fits, or get the STL for the full-width version and pause after a few layers. This design could be improved upon. I could have made the pieces thinner and added gussets for rigidity. Making it adjustable during printing instead of customizable beforehand would be much more convenient. The Nose section could use more whimsical design elements. Feel free to enhance this design as you see fit. If you customize it for a different monitor, please leave a comment with the model number and values changed, along with a description of how well it fits on your screen. The baseline settings are tailored for a 2013 iMac 27". Print Settings: Printer Brand: SeeMeCNC Printer: Rostock MAX Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2 mm Infill: 20% Notes: Print it on its side, and only one side of the nosepiece will require support. Design Background: I reworked this design in customizable OpenSCAD based on Jan Beckman's TinkerCAD eyeglasses stand. https://tinkercad.com/things/6ywl6VNJWNK http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:132471
