Tablet holder, saddle surface shape

thingiverse

A sleek tablet computer holder, reminiscent of an iPad stand, has been optimized for use while cooking recipes. Its innovative design includes a rotating tray at the top to safeguard your device with a protective film and another tray below for quickly wiping clean your fingers. In supplementary files, there's a broader extension of the 3D-plot SCAD library here, offering advanced plotting capabilities, specifically for objects with specified thickness rather than just flat surfaces. To bring this tablet holder to life, follow these straightforward steps: 1. Begin by printing tablet_holder.stl. 2. Next, print tablet_holder_cover_trays.stl, and suggest placing the rotating shafts flat on the printer bed, using a support structure as necessary. This approach was found helpful when standing upright caused parts to detach from the bed during printing. Alternatively, open the SCAD file, tablet_holder.scad, modify it according to your preference, and render your creation. You will need an intermediate result: "tablet_holder_base_modified.stl," which is derived from a thickened 3D plot rendition processed in Blender. For maximum flexibility, invoke "tabletHolderBase()" within OpenSCAD, allowing you to build the tablet holder completely anew.
