3D Model Description

This ultra-lightweight, highly portable 3D printable smartphone stand features an intelligent mechanical design that allows it to fold completely flat into a footprint smaller than a standard credit card.

• The Problem: Traditional phone stands are bulky, difficult to carry in a pocket, and take up too much desk space.

• The Design Solution: Engineered with a specialized living hinge network and a interlocking geometric skeleton, this stand delivers maximum structural rigidity while using minimal material. When deployed, the angled rear support locks into place, creating a stable, tip-proof base for both portrait and landscape viewing.

• Optimized for Portability: Weighing a mere 4.20 grams, it is perfect for everyday carry (EDC). Slip it directly into your wallet, purse, or tech pouch without adding any noticeable weight or bulk.

Recommended Print Settings

• Material: Tough PLA or PETG for optimal flexural strength along the hinges.

• Layer Height: 0.16mm or 0.20mm for precise tolerances.

• Infill: 100% (due to its thin structure, solid infill ensures durability).

• Supports: None required. Prints entirely flat on the build plate.
