Wireless charging phone stand

thingiverse

A phone stand with a hidden wireless charger inside is perfect! I designed it specifically for this exact wireless charger: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/xqisit-wireless-fast-charger-1a-10w-quick-charge-20-fast-charge-mobilgeraet-stromversorgung-8763156 I used to struggle with my wireless charger because I had to carefully aim for it to charge and couldn't use my phone while charging. So, I made this stand! Now it's much easier to hit the fast charging sweet spot and I can even use my phone in landscape mode while it's charging! Printing is a breeze! I've included my supported STLs as well as the sliced files for the Anycubic Photon S. If you want to modify or hollow the model yourself, you'll find two base models: WirelessPhoneStand.stl and InternalSupports.stl. I don't like auto-generated internal supports, so I designed some permanent ones manually. To apply modifications, follow these steps: - Modify "WirelessPhoneStand.stl" - Add fill supports to the wireless charger hole port - Orient the model on the build plate (-90 degrees X and -6 degrees Z) - Hollow the model, min 2.5mm thickness - Add draining holes; take a look at my ready-to-print STL for guidance - Add the "InternalSupports.stl" model, place it under the big internal overhang (under the slot for the wireless charger) - The internal supports should go through the first wall resting on the build plate and through the first wall of the wireless charger slot (without poking on the other side!) - Slice them both at the same time and print! My print settings are as follows: Printer: Anycubic Photon S What to print?: One phone stand with a hidden slot for a QI wireless charger Time to print?: around 24 hours Layer height: 0.02 mm Quantity of resin used: around 160 mL Type of resin: Anycubic Eco plant-based resin (macaroon pink) Printing temp: around 20C, the highest I could get at the time When washing and curing my prints, I recommend removing the supports before curing. It's a bit more tedious with gloves and a mask, but they come off easier and there is less risk of damage. I also recommend curing underwater; it worked great for me! Just tried it with the last batch. To get a smooth finish, sand the supports marks until they are flat, then increase the grit. Have fun!
