Magnetic Desk Bowl Holder

thingiverse

I wanted to come up with a way to eat my morning oatmeal at my desk without having to rearrange everything. Behold! The Magnetic Desk Bowl Holder has been created! This is quite the custom build, and I'd be surprised if it would be useful for anyone else, but here we are. My desk is a metal office desk with a 3M Gel Wrist Rest residing at the edge. Because the desk is metal, I decided to use some 10MM x 3MM magnets to keep the holder in place during breakfast. I also ended up topping the holder with a layer of neoprene for anti-slip purposes. However, I found that the contact cement used to hold down the neoprene can reactivate if you have a hot bowl/plate on the surface; so be warned. Please feel free to edit this thing however you see fit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Name subject to change without notice ** The Magnetic Desk Bowl Holder can be used for any meal
