Desktop Tablet Holder

This desktop tablet holder is compatible with the "Tablet Holder for Bedside Hospital Tray" (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4485223). It was designed for bedside use in hospitals but will work on any flat surface.

All bolts are 1/4" hex bolts. Use a soldering iron to heat up the nuts and melt them in to the hexagonal holes. Print all parts as they are oriented with supports as needed.

The top and bottom supports on the tablet holder are oversized in order accommodate tablets in cases and with protective covers. This is important for infection control in healthcare settings. Tablets can be held in either landscape or portrait orientation.

The tablet holder slides easily on and off the tablet holder attachment to allow tablets to be switched between different mounts.

To assemble the tablet holder, use a 3/4" long bolt in combination with the appropriate knob to attach and secure the top clamp.

To assemble the desk stand, glue the halves of the desk stand together. CA glue works well.

Use a 2 1/4 - 2 1/2" bolt and the appropriate knob to secure the tablet holder attachment (horizontal). Side-to-side swivel is not usually needed for a desktop mount, but if you would like to add this in you can use the appropriate parts from "Tablet Holder for Bedside Hospital Tray" (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4485223).

There is a tight 0.2 mm tolerance between all hinge joints so the friction will minimize unwanted movement. File out the hinge surfaces if you would like it to move more freely.
