3D Printed Phone Holder in accessory slot

[muddtt]

I was working on a rough draft for a phone holder using the accessories slots. The arm that goes into the slot seems to be working well so I guess I can design it to hold whatever I want now. Any other ideas of what to hold?

1) where does one put one's KEY. If you throw it on the seat, you might forget it. In my pocket, if you move around the buttons press and it like opens the hatch!

2) juice boxes/larger bottles/snacks?

3) trashbag/bin holder?

4) ID organiser...(i.e. - I have a card I have to get out and tap to get into two different parking lots. I have my Chargepoint cards, my door ID for work...

This is what i have so far:

1) Links if you have a 3D Printer:
-iPhone 6/s Holder (Both with and without case models will be included in the link):

--iPhone 6/s Plus Holder (Both with and without case models will be included in the link)(These haven't been tested with a phone, I just used dimensions off Apple's website):

-Simple Sunglass Hook:

-Key Holder:

2) Links if you don't have a 3D Printer and need to purchase. (Again, I'm not making any money using this site. It's just how much they charge for the service. If anyone has a cheaper site let me know).
-iPhone 6/s Holder (If you're not using a case on your phone):

-iPhone 6/s Holder (If you are using the standard Apple case on your phone):

Stay tuned, still working on & refining more designs.

Any chance you could make a cupholder similar to the oem one but about an inch larger in diameter?

There's a place I get drinks from that has abnormally fat cups that don't fit into the regular cupholders

I did end up making a cup holder. On testing it the tab that inserts into the car broke with heavier liquids. I was going to attempt to make the tab as a separate piece so it could be printed stronger, but my SSD died so I lost all the files. All that's left are the STL files at thingiverse. I haven't gotten around to starting over.

The URLs you posted got trashed. Here are the working URLs

This looks great. The only thing it's missing is a cutout at the bottom so you can charge the phone while it's in the holder.

Can you post the interior dimensions of the hole the phone slides into? I want to measure to see if the family's phones can fit in there with their cases.

Thanks!

I'm out of town at the moment, but I can get the dimensions to you next week if you still want them.

Hi there, are you able to 3D print a Charge Point cover for a BMW i3 (UK version) please?
I have a "code" for it.

I can 3D print, by "code" do you mean an STL or .gcode ? (I'm in the UK too).

I see somone is doing 3D printed holders for less than £12

Hi there,
It's a VN PNG whatever that means!
I have attached that which I have and might possibly help!
Thanks for your interest.

Chris.

I have a Prusa printer and will print one of these files and post pics

I can also design from scratch and modify designs

 

[Chrisbee]

Hi Madelvic,
Thanks for your interest, I have attached the files that might assist you.
They are for the Charge Point cover on a BMW i3 UK car.
Please advise me of what you can so.
Regards,
Chris.

It's an STL file (3D model) suitable for 3D printing (the PNG is just an example of what it looks like). Yes, I can print one, although I'm not sure if it will be any good. Looks like it needs to be glued to the flap, and then as the flap hinges the cover might get stressed and split and you end up with a mess glued to your flap. I would stick with the standard cap IMHO.

How about the black push button lever that is inside the handle of our OEM chargers. Yeah, don't drop them or the tits break off the end. I tried scanning a good one but the black plastic gives my scanner fits.

If you mean the granny charger there seem to be many used whole chargers available on eBay and elsewhere for cheap ( at least us versions).

Chris (and others). This is one of the three files printed (they all look similar). Took 1 hour 40 mins to print. I'll try it on my car tomorrow
