Iphone charger holder

thingiverse

This is just a fun little design I whipped up to help with my phone's picky attitude towards charge cords. Essentially, I've only ever found one charger cord that actually makes contact with the port in my phone enough to charge it properly. All other cords stop charging unless I hold them at a precise angle, and holding my phone to charge it became a real pain fast. So I brainstormed a design that would fit snugly over my phone, with a surface at the bottom to hold the charger in place for me (then I added a pattern all over because patterns are awesome). It worked like magic, so I thought I'd share the design in case anyone else has had similar issues with finicky phones. Just keep in mind, you'll probably need to resize the file to fit your phone or phone case. Open it up in Meshmixer, and use the 'measure' tool under analysis to measure the interior dimensions of the file. Then measure your phone. Use the 'transform' tool under edit to tweak the width and depth of the file until the measurements match perfectly. Save, export, print out, and you're good to go!
