Laptop/Notebook holder

prusaprinters

Made for the “last meter” contest. Although all parts together can be printed for less than 4m filament (not tested with the uploaded gcode, since I have no Prusa printer yet, but a comparable setup was used on my printer successfully, see image), you can/should print each piece separately with your favourite settings instead! This way you can utilize your last meters more easily, since each piece needs less than 2m of filament, even with fat/robust settings. Assembly guide: print a pair that suits your laptop best (I added versions with 11mm, 14mm and 17mm height, if you need a smaller or bigger version, scale to your liking), and screw them onto your board (board thickness should be bigger than 12mm). Pre-drill a small hole where you want to mount the holders, this way you will get the screws easier into the board. The holders are slanted on one side, just test which one fits better on the left/right side (I use the slanted parts on the outer ends). CategorySettingCommentNozzleanyin range 0.25-0.8mm none should be problematic (tested with 0.6mm)Layer height0.1-0.2mmThe screwhole typically works better (less/no distortions) with small layer height, I tested it with 0.1mmdimensions~3cm x 2.5cm support structurenoneno problematic overhangs (screwhole has minimal overhangs, but with small layer height no problemperimeter3 or moreyou can print it with thinner walls, but make it sturdy for longevityinfill7-50%more infill means sturdiermaterialall nonflex materials workin case of PLA: no brim or heated bed needed, generally recommended to use ironingcomplexityeasyevery printer should be able to deal with this modelextra itemsscrews, boardfor a full make you need 2 screws (hole designed for 3.5x25mm screws or longer and of course a board (>12mm thickness) to mount them on
