I did this:
on the CT and this on the X
I just hope never to have to see use them. I hope the CT is easer than the X… that door takes a lot of effort to open manually. It’s a good exercise though, on the X, it took me a long time to even find the wire - I was looking for a yellow loop not a...

As an early adopter of most technological things, I get the short end of the financial stick all the time. Computers, drones, 3d printers, EV’s, solar panels, home batteries, cell phones have all gotten cheaper and better over the years. Have others gotten a better deal than me? Absolutely and I...

Wow! Very similar! It’s a great solution. My version being 3D printed is not a bad thing. Being able to distribute the file to DIYers makes me happy. I like the appearance. I’m glad there are more options for our community. I tried the CT keycard with my setup and it works just fine.
You’re way too kind! I just wanted something that worked and I was thinking I had to do it myself. Hemiarch actually bought one from me and should receive it soon. I’m awaiting his review.
I’m going to post the STL online with a list of things I used after I get Hemiarch’s opinion. Planning...
Update: I’ve tinkered with the design and have been using it for a week or so I’ve decided that the native look off the printer, without painting it, will likely be best. Nice textured look without the chance of the paint getting marred. I’ve moved the chargers up a bit so that the phones can...
I’d have to get a sample of the charging unit for measurement and trials. It looks like it would stick out quite a bit too ( so it would not be flat). But yeah I probably could make something.
I actually have a great MagSafe charger which is attached to the screen (which now swivels!).
your point is understood about charging but for me a lot of my quest involved just getting something to work as it should. I could not charge using the existing charger very well so I wanted to fix it...
I have thought about it a lot and decided to just post the STL file on Makerworld once I have finalized the design. You can use this for your personal use only. No payment would be necessary, but you could buy me a cup of coffee (I’ll give my Venmo).
But if anyone wanted me to print them a...
A vinyl would require another piece of equipment for my burgeoning office!
(wife’s response kind of like “you’ve lost ANOTHER submarine ?? (Who gets that reference??))
I’m still cleaning up the design a bit. For instance I could get rid out that center slit and make the entire thing flat. But it kind of looks cool with the slit. I printed with PETG-CF and painted with flat black ceramic paint for heat to clearance. The MagSafe chargers I’m using have a...
I agree. I kept waiting for a fix until I garnered the motivation to do it myself. I don’t know of a way to disable the OEM charger but that’s certainly preferable.
Wow. I haven’t even thought about selling the completed unit or the STL. Let me keep working on it and let me think how to move forward. Previously I’ve posted the STL for stuff to print and if someone wanted me to print a model and send it to them I’d charge a fee. The side visor clip has...
I think the easiest thing to do is to add height to the bracket about 5 mm just at the ends where the bolts go. This is effectively “adding washers.” In fact adding an inch or two of height here would raise the screen to where I would like it. The plastic covers would need to be adjusted I’m...
that’s great! I had to heavily modify the bracket but it works and I do like the final result. If it could be raised about two inches that would be perfect.
Thank you!
