Description
The wife recently got the Samsung Galaxy Note in place of her iPhone and immediately wanted to case it in a wallet style case as she aimed to carry all her financial ends along with the Note making it the primary item to pull from her mini purse. The issue came when time to charge; she didn't want to just lay her Note on the desktop at work or home as she wanted to keep using it while charging. We looked at docks but they all were for the naked Note and I didn't like the idea of her needing to pull the device in/out of the case over and over each day. What to do, what to do, well you design and print your own! Over the course of a few days I designed this 3D printable case that allows the Note to charge/sync with the factory adapter, hold the stylus in a readily accessible location and hold the Note while still in a nice leather folding case!
Instructions
This dock has been designed to print on small build platforms so any home printer should have success printing. The placement of the parts in the stl files attached produce the two dock halves and clip even with less than perfect printer/slicer settings.

i love the idea but with a slim case on the note is allowed to lean back and since the plug cannot lean with it.. its leaning on the USB female plug and that worries me greatly.
Hmmm, I wonder if we have the same plug end? We use the factory shipped Samsung Note cable/plug and it flares out toward the wire end which nests in the enlarged channel and allows a bit of tilt. I am able to take the case off my wife's Note and dock it without binding and have it rest against the back stop...
