I decided to go ahead and try to laser cut my tablet holder. I'm pretty happy with the results. the main arm is 4 layers of plywood laminated together. the middle two are 3.5mm which is perfect width for the OEM tablet holder. and the outer pieces are 5mm for added strength. it does wobble a little with the big tab in there, but I have an ipad mini coming. I made it so it kind of locks onto the top of the controller for extra strength instead of just relying on the piece mounted in the regular holder. I have some black ABS coming to see if i can make a version out of that. in the mean time ill sand and stain this one.

Nicely done, I just ordered something similar. Don't have your skills
 
I do like it allot. That is design I am looking for my tabley. I like how it sits above the controller and the antennas. Just need a hook for the lanyard, unless i missed it. [emoji6][emoji38]

I'm going to make one minor modification where the two middle pieces come through the part that clips in and will have double holes in it... one to lock it down to the base piece and the other for the lanyard. hope it works as well in ABS.

Nice design, this is what I'm looking for, a top mount that along with a sun shade would keep the glare off the monitor & controller. If you decide to sell a few of these I would definitely be interested!
