Nexus 5X Printer Mounting Bracket for Monoprice Maker Select

thingiverse

I use a Nexus 5X to interface with Octoprint, so I needed an effective way to keep the phone handy at the printer. This bracket attaches securely to the frame of a Monoprice Maker Select V2 or any other printer featuring four 3mm bolts spaced 30mm apart, and gives you total control over your phone's power button and charging port while keeping them safe from damage. The design ensures that you have easy access to these essential features without compromising your experience. Since I didn't need the volume controls, this bracket doesn't give me access to them, but it still allows for full functionality of my phone. If you're using the Maker Select, you'll require four 12mm long 3mm x 0.5mm cap screws and a hex wrench to install this bracket correctly (the original bolts are too short). If you're searching for a freestanding bracket for your Nexus 5X rather than one that mounts to the printer frame, I recommend checking out https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3540809.
