Nexus 6 Charge Cradle

thingiverse

The Qi charger fits within the 70mm OD ring. Designed specifically for a Google Nexus 6 phone and similar devices. This landscape cradle attaches via an octagonal fitting allowing angle adjustment in both arms with spanner ends for varied flexibility - up to increments of 11.25 degrees. Adjustability makes it easy to accommodate various types of Qi chargers. Print the given parts with particular focus on printing the end of the cradle first, as support may be needed depending on the 3D printer used (as an example I printed on a Da Vinci 1.0 without support). Printing recommendations: Print using layers as thin as .2mm for best results. Apply a three perimeter finish. Filling can be done between 33% and 50%. I found the use of a brim was necessary with the given material - specifically 3mm thickness with an added 0.5mm thickness guaranteeing a strong bed adhesion on first layer.
