Macbool Pro Dock: Fits models from (2013-2015) 13” and 15” Variants
I designed this dock to enable me to have an elegant way to connect all of my peripherals to my mac book pro in a desktop set up. The following peripherals connect all at once: two display ports, magsafe charger, USB extension, headphone jack.
The following commercially available cords were selected to integrate with this dock (i.e. their dimensions were used as constraints and are thus required for the dock to mate properly)

The amazon links are bulk sets, but honestly it is worth it! If you are a true maker you will always be in need of hardware.
I printed the dock in a wood filament because I wanted to sand and finish it when complete, but I am sure it would look good in white filament as well.
Take note that this is a very large print, and will be both time and material intensive! Make sure you don’t run out of filament 20 hours into the print like I did the first time!
