Magnetic ceiling cable mounts for VR (Vive, Rift)

thingiverse

This is a handy hanger to hang your headset cables from the ceiling so they won't distract you while playing VR games. It's obviously designed to fit any VR headset cables. What you'll need for 1 holder/mount: 2 magnets - each 2mm thick and 25mm to 35mm in diameter, check out this image. 1 Spring coil - you can find these on eBay, see the image too. Instructions: 1. Pick and print one of the models. I like version #2 because it's lighter. 2. Glue one magnet to the cap and the other magnet to the inside base of the cup. 3. Attach the coil to the ring on the cap. 4. Use 3M adhesive tape to mount it to the ceiling. Now just slide your headset cable into the ring/carabiner at the bottom of the coil and you'll have a tangle-free VR experience! If you make this, don't forget to share with us the final result! Note: I recommend printing at least 4 mounts for it to be perfect. Note #2: I came up with this idea from scratch after seeing something somewhere.
