Summary

Wanted my laptop to sit a bit higher and give me a little more room on the tabletop after seeing a friend's that he purchased. A bit small for the base of some laptops, but still works with my 15.6" Asus M509 (36 cm x 23.5 cm x 2.5 cm) despite being only 22 cm x 22 cm.

Laptop sits about 9 cm up and angled up at 25° from the table.

This can be used for tablets/e-readers, or books as well as a laptop.

I initially planned on making straight connectors on the top like the base but needed more support toward the back; was limited by MINI's bed size so I added the extra circular and perpendicular beam. If your notebook/tablet/book/etc. is small enough you could get away with 4 of the regular connector pieces instead!

No glue needed; however it wouldn't hurt if you have a hefty notebook or it hangs off the back too far. All dovetails are friction fit and I didn't even need to shave anything off, has a nice click when pushed together. All connectors use the same dovetail shape, as well as the connection between the two top beams which help support the back of the laptop.

I used one of each Left side, right side (both with top notch), top front connection, top back connector, and two connectors (on the bottom). The other side pieces not labeled "top Notch" do not have a dovetail on the top in case you have something small that might not need them. Note: I didn't make a Right Side - Top Notch STL; I just mirrored the Left in the slicer.

Infill was 15% cubic, but could be increased to add some weight to it if needed. Total print time was ~18h (~6h per side + ~1h per small connecter (x3) + 3h for circular connector)

Supports only used on the central dovetail of the circular connector where it floats off the bed by 4 mm.

Print with round edges up!

I added some rubber bumpers to the inside of the hooks and to the top of the circular beam to help hold it steady - I recommend some sort of bumper like this, at least on the hooks at the bottom of the slope.

Designed to fit on Prusa MINI's 18 cm x 18 cm printbed - all .3mf files are for the MINI (STLs included as well). Printed on Prusa MINI+ (not i3 MK3s like it says).
