Description

The other day while hacking at NYC Resistor, I realized I was getting a crick in my neck sitting hunched over at my laptop. I needed some sort of laptop stand to get the screen up higher, and one that I could get my external keyboard under so my computer wasn't too far away. I'd never seen exactly what I was looking for, so I figured I'd whip one up!

A little while later, with some help from Inkscape and our Lazzzor, I had this laptop stand.

Because the stand is made from 3 flat pieces which you can take apart, it's extremely portable and light.

Instructions

You'll need 2 of the larger "arm" piece, so don't forget to make a mirror of the top piece when you cut this design.

ебануццо...

Que buen aporte, yo usaba un libro como base, ahora si tengo mas estilo jejejejej

great - thank you!
I did my own Podcast Centric version with slight improvements here: http://is.gd/ntLz
- less sharp edges on the bottom
- slightly longer stands so 15'' notebooks also fit
- a 90 Degree Angle at the holding area, so the notebook has a smoother fit
- also made the holding area slightly deeper for a better fit

Cool! It looks like logitech's :)

Thank you so much. I'm going to create one this week.

Just excellent, thanks to share with us. I wrote a post in spanish http://pepegrillo.com/2008/11/...

Excellent ! I will do one for me right away.. Great idea by the way !

Did you planned to do the same for an iPhone ?

Regards..

Pretty cool, I like the simplicity. I like the steampunk look, but I think it would also look cool with some PCB traces thrown in as well... but I'm no artist.

Awesome idea - the beauty of the thingiverse is that you can hack this up however you like before you cut it. Add traces, etc.
