Description

I use my laptop a lot whit my monitor and dock in clamshell mode. But it occupies a lot of space on the desk.

So I designed this stand to keep it upright. It has an aluminum bar connecting the two plastic pieces togheter. The bar is an anodized 20x2 [mm]. If you have a precise enough printer, there is no need of glue, else, use some heat to heat up the aluminum or an angle grinder to taper the ends. Or you can simply not use the bar :D

Also, the stand are pretty bump proof, but if you want you can put some double sided tape on the bottom for a more permanent installation.

If you are worried about scratches, simply put some 1mm EVA foam on the inside of the stand and it should be fine.

I printed it whit 6 wall, 30% infill in PETG. Maybe overkill but it adds some weight and sturdiness.

25mm max depth of the laptop. The cutout is 23mm from the bottom.

Leave a like and post a make if you print it! Thank you!

Hello, at a local hardware shop, it's anodised aluminium, but you can use anything you want. I also made another pair and used double sided tape (the transparent one, leaves no mark ;D ) to place it on the desk
