The Instant Phone

Human: Assassinate anything and everything.\r\nIs it useful in any way? No.Is it more convenient? lol nope.Is it necessary? Heck yea boii\r\nOriginally shared on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/therpf/permalink/2094177604005147/\r\n \r\nAssembly guide:\r\nI tried to make this in as few components as possible.\r\nGate is connected to the front of Frame with a cut paperclip. Make sure the indent lines on Gate are facing downwards.\r\nAttach rubber bands to the knobs on either side of Gate and Frame. Fiddle around with it so the gate consistently flaps upward/away from the wrist.\r\nSecure Mount to the phone cover of your choice. Make sure the knob is towards the bottom of the phone and that there is a ~20mm gap from the bottom of the phone so it doesn't collide with gate in the retracted position.\r\nSlide Mount into Flex_Rail and insert a cut paperclip through the hole so Mount is secured in. It should slide easily but if it doesn't, grab that needle file and sand away~\r\nSlide the assembled rail into the assembled frame. The phone should be upside down/the bottom of the phone points towards your wrist.\r\nNow that the rail is in the frame, insert Stopper into the hole in the rail and secure it by inserting a cut paperclip through the two pieces.\r\nAdd Straps to the sides and a length of fishing wire to connect Gate to one of your fingers so when you flex your wrist, the gate flips open.\r\nDone! Let me know if there is anything I missed and I'll update this description.\r\n \r\nHow to style on them suckers: You can take a look at the facebook post linked above, but in short:\r\nPoint arm downwards and flex your wrist, the weight of the phone due to gravity should pull it downwards.\r\nOnce extended the phone should disengage and rotate to flip the right direction.\r\nStyle +1\r\nTo put away, Flip phone back to its original position so it gets locked into place with the flex rail (See photo). Point arm upwards and flex your wrist again.\r\n...\r\nStyle +9001\r\n \r\nUpdate: 29/1/2019\r\nReduced contact area between "frame" and "flex_rail" to reduce friction.\r\nAdded "card" mount variant to hold a card instead of a phone. Print flex rail with a hard plastic instead as the weight of the card due to gravity will not be able to overcome frictional forces
