How to Make a Phone Holder
Start by creating a box that is 5x5 in, then extrude it. then cut a large rectangle out of the bottom of the front face of square leaving 1.5 in on both sides of box. next from either side of the box cut a 1 in from front of box. Next, cut out the arms that hold the phone by going .5 in bellow the second cut and create a divot 1 in for your phone to rest in. Last make a 45 degree slant for phone to rest against.
(Optional) you can cut holes in free space left over for functionality or to use less material. |
What I learned during this project
I learned to always check the environment of Makerbot to make sure there are no mistakes. I attempted to print this multiple times because it kept failing. On the last day I realized that I accidentally made a copy of my object outside of the platform of the printer, so it would fail to print it.
