Truck Vader Standy

thingiverse

So, I've had this Darth Vader statue on my dash for what feels like an eternity. It was a Christmas gift probably 20 years ago - no, I don't know who made it or where you can find one; just that it's truly amazing. My last vehicle came with a base the previous owner had glued to the dash using epoxy to hold a GPS device in place, and while it fit relatively well, it still kept tumbling off. In my new truck, this became an even bigger problem, so I designed this solution to provide better stability, and so far, it's performed flawlessly. It works beautifully in my 2010 F-150. This statue is actually blue instead of black because I printed it using PETG, a material I purchased for another project. I was worried that PLA, which I have in black, might deform over time due to the extreme heat inside my all-black truck during Kansas summers.
