Phone Holder was a small project to create a horizontal mount for cheap cell phones.

Designed to hold Samsung Galaxy Centura phones perpendicular to the table, these holders are both artistic and functional

Key components -- the USB connector and camera -- are unimpeded by the design of the holder.

Print time is 90 minutes.

Key features:

  • The arcs at the top are shallow enough to print without overhangs and to trace around the micro USB power input.
  • The crossbars in the middle hold the halfs together, while also resting the phone at the same height as the base layer.
  • All arcs are filled-in on the outside, to more easily print the holder.
