Summary

**17 Aug 2023 Update***
Resized the slide join to make the 2-part option fit better.

29 Jul 2023 Update

So, I have used this phone holder a lot (in 2023 I have flown 32 legs and 42,236 miles) and I really like it--save one thing, the shape takes up space in my backpack. So I embarked on making it a two piece holder so that it would lay a little more flat in my bag.

This is my second attempt at making a connection and it works! I have some fine tuning to do, but overall I am happy.

I am uploading the parts separately so you can print them or resize them as you want. The print quality on this one is a B- because I printed it quickly. Here are the settings I used for the two-piece:

Ender 5+
Esun PLA+
.6 nozzle
Both pieces printed on their sides with a 250mm brim (I have the orientated how I like to print them)
CHEP Extra Fast Cura profile (speed 80)
Temp - 195
bed 70

It's a work in progress!

In the photos, the green is a one piece and the silver is the two piece.

Original Post Notes

This is a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5225016

I wanted a seatback holder for flying and I found this model. I made two small modifications in Tinkercad:

  1. I widened the area between the front and back support to hold a wider cased phone.
  2. I raised the front support slightly to provide a higher front edge to hold the phone.

Photos are on an Airbus 320 of an iPhone 11 (the one with "Star Wars") with a case that holds credit cards and an iPhone 13 with a standard case.

Side Notes:

I left the original designer logo on the bottom; it is their design, so they deserve the credit.

It held my Kindle Fire as well.

It doubles as a desk holder very nicely!
