Qi Wireless Octopus Tentacle Phone Stand with Pockets for Magnets
thingiverse
This is a scaled up version of my octopus phone stand featuring pockets for magnets to ensure secure charging. Sizing was done to accommodate an Qi wireless charger and iPhone in the cradle, fitting snugly together. The design takes into account Ubio labs 10W chargers currently available at Costco. https://www.costco.com/Ubio-Labs-10W-Qi-Wireless-Charging-Pad%2c-2-pack.product.100425275.html These chargers measure 11mm in thickness, while my iPhone with case measures 10.7mm thick. If you're using different phones or chargers, you may need to scale the octopus accordingly. The magnets used are 8mm diameter and 3mm thick neodymium magnets secured with a small dab of cyanoacrylate adhesive. The stand functions well without placing magnets in the pockets. Adding rubber non-skid pads on the bottom is also an option, utilizing the rubber from the back of the Qi charger. The chargers are attached to the tentacle using high-quality double stick tape. Removing the back rubber pad from the charger improved adhesion. Printing with supports is recommended.
