Star Trek The Original Series Tricorder Stand

thingiverse

Based on a question about making a prop stand for the Original Series Tricorder, I decided to move this project forward in my work queue. The stand should be centered on the Tricorder prop width-wise. Some of the prop will hang over on each side, which is intentional given the shape of the bottom of the prop from Diam Select and others like Master Replicas. You should be able to open the lower compartment door with the upper compartment door resting on it. If you find this isn't uniformly true, please message me and I'll modify this design (just make sure to send images of where your prop is catching on the raised edge of the stand). I included a slot on the back to roll up the strap and have it rest behind the prop. This is just an option; if you prefer to have the strap loose, feel free to do so. If you're displaying one of the heavier replicas like those produced by Master Replicas, you may want to bump up the infill to 30%. I printed it at 15% for the Diamond Select toy version and it was well-balanced with no issues.
