Summary

Experimental design for a Hyperdrive Gen2 12 Port USB-C dock.

There is no good obvious way to hold the dock upright (long side down) without going around it. My goal with this design was to prevent the holder from decreasing airflow around the fins, as the dock can get quite toasty when many things are plugged in. This is why it has this odd-looking shape.

Print in PLA with no supports, briding should take care of the overhang. You might need to remove some spaghetti material under the bridge to get the dock in, as it's quite a tight fit.

When mounted, the dock can move around a bit, but it cannot fall out when you tug on a cable accidentally.

When mounting, remember to leave enough space for you to get the dock into the holder and also for the cables to run. The screw hole are countersunk for M3 wood screws. I used M3x16.

Note: I also included a small plate that I put around the ethernet-port with some double-sided tape. I printed it in gray -- you can see it in one of the pictures. This is because the ethernet activity led is floodlight for some odd reason. The plate dims it.
