I have been using the PGYTech tablet holder but with my tablet (Samsung SM-T830) directly over the controller I've been having compass issues. I printed one I found on Thingiverse but the top hook wasn't open enough for my tablet with the TPU case on it. I tried modifying the original file but it was not cooperating so I drew up my own to fit my tablet with the case. I printed it in TPU rather than plastic since the TPU will hold onto the tablet better and can't break like plastic.

If you have a tablet and would like one of these to fit it I just need the height of your tablet (or tablet w/ case) in landscape mode and the thickness in millimeters. I can then post the file for you to download. If you don't have a printer and would like one feel free to PM me and we can work something out.

Thanks in advance for offering it. My tablet is 255mm X 180mm X 20mm.
 
May I ask you folks what printer(s) you use. I am very intrigued by the whole thing, but I have very little exposure to 3D Printing on the consumer level. I have only briefly seen a very large device that probably cost well into the six-figures used for commercial output, and that was years ago. I am interested in where this tech has gone to allow doing it in your den..

I have two Wanhao Duplicator i3 printers with a bunch of 3D printed upgrades. One has a Flexion extruder for printing flexible filaments and it's the one I use the most, it has printed a total of 2509 hours and extruded 13.03 miles of filament. I build a lot of quads and design my own TPU parts which you can see HERE if you're interested.

Oh man, I would be very very interested in you making one for me (I don't have a 3D printer yet). I'm using an iPad Pro (the 9.7"). The exact dimensions are 240.00 x 169.50 x 6.10 but I'd prefer the controller is not stretched out to the maximum so what you've already made would probably work just fine. PM me with the cost.

Thanks for the reply. I took a look and am fascinated.

Hi
I would very much like your file please :-) my S4 tab is 165mm wide and 7.5mm thick. My Brother is awaiting delivery of his printer and I would love to give him his first project :-)
At the moment I use two elastic bands which work surprisingly well ? but would prefer a proper adapter. I also purchased a clamp from amazon but just feels heavy and clumsy and put tab over top of controller ?
Thanks in advance

I'll make one up for you. Keep in mind a lot of printers don't print TPU very well without a better extruder.
 
ok thanks very much, brother now has his printer :-) will you post it here? or to me personally? if there's any cost let me know, many thanks
