Ultimate tripod phone mount

thingiverse

This phone mount is inspired by the Universal tripod phone mount designed by neyfrota, however I designed the model from scratch in OpenSCAD with the aim to make it more versatile and stronger. Mount it on a tripod, place it on a table or hang it on the wall with a hook or with that stretchy 3M tape. This narrow tripod mount is able to grip your phone in the little free space available on the sides. Attach the mount to a tripod with the standard ¼-20 UNF tripod thread underneath or on the back of the mount. Special USB cable grips in the foot or under the screw knob to lock the USB cable in place and protect the phone USB port from any strain. On the back of the mount is a recessed screw slot so it can be securely hung on the wall by means of a screw or nail. Alternatively snap on the base which adds the ability to tilt the camera. The base also has the recessed screw slot or can be permanently attached by means of screws or tape. I am particularly pleased with the way the hinge is implemented. The concentric rings place the pivot point at the camera and the large friction area has not trouble to maintain the set angle. This phone mount can be printed without any supports. It is super easy to print in whatever material you like. Recommended layer height is around 0.2mm. The latest up to date version can always be found on printables.com/model/329988
