Kickstand for iPhone / iPod Touch

thingiverse

Similar to a popular commercial iPhone stand design, I created this model using SketchUp. It accommodates an iPhone 3G/3GS in both landscape and portrait orientations. The angle can be adjusted by sliding it up or down the phone. A small hole allows for attaching it to a keychain or other items. There are two files: 'large' for iPhone 3G/3GS and 'small', which is scaled up by about 25% from the original design. The 'small' file may work for an iPod touch, but it hasn't been tested. The commercial version features rubberization to prevent slipping; however, this stand uses a single layer of electrical tape in the slot section for better grip. Printing works well on the small file with rounded short edges, while the larger file requires excellent tuning to print successfully. Recommended print settings include 20% infill and raftless printing in black ABS, resulting in a high-quality stand.
