Mighty Stand - Customizable Heights

pinshape

Summary Tired of fumbling with your computer monitor's height? Sick of relying on old books to get it just right? With a Mighty Stand, you can finally read those books again - after printing out this fantastic solution that also clears up some desk space! The Mighty Stand is the ultimate rugged and customizable 3D printed monitor stand you'll ever need. The base stands at a standard 40 mm tall and measures 190 mm by 140 mm (7.5 by 5.5 inches) on top. The overall size of the stand is 210 mm by 160 mm (8.25 by 6.3 inches). I've uploaded a smaller version (190 mm by 160 mm) for those who need it a little smaller, and also a split version of the base to make printing possible on smaller printers - this version comes in two pieces that are 160 mm by 110 mm. Customize the height to your liking with three sizes of blocks: 40 mm, 20 mm, and 10 mm. I've added support material into the model to save you time and effort for printing. Feet are included to cap off the bottom slots of the stand, ensuring a solid base - choose between a smaller square cap for small heights or a round cap for taller heights. They have slits so they can be removed with a flat screwdriver if the fit is too tight. Measure the height you'd like before printing everything you need and assembling last, just in case some of the blocks are too hard to get apart. If the fits seem a bit too tight, cut off a little bit of the male extrusion piece until it has a snug fit. Make sure everything has a snug fit before using your stand - I designed it so it should all fit fairly well, but every printer has different tolerances. Loose pieces can put your monitor at risk. A microfiber cloth is also included between the stand and monitor base to prevent slipping.
