NOTE: I just realized that all if not most of the items are at a wierd angle because I built everything on top plane. VERY SORRY!!!
I realized that if i double the part in size than printing time can increase exponentially, so i have tried to keep these small, except for what i call the "main body pieces".I also realized that every printer has a different printing tolerance, so i put in .5 gaps for the dovetails to fit right...hopefully... I also ran into the problem of space to hold a holder that is so clunky and figured that the main pieces can be connected and go under my monitor. Though i only had a couple of days to do this i am happy with what i was able to design so far...
If i could Redesign this I would make it easier to print by adding in parts so that you wouldn't need to add in support material, and not make all the cuts through all the way so that the decoration wouldn't impede the actual functionality and print-ability of these models.If i redesigned this i would add even more different types of holders because everyone my not have a monitor that has a headset holder for example.If i redesigned this i would make this even more compact so that i could store more of the things that i need often.
3D Printing can strengthen my design by making it more affordable and accessible to everyone. 3D printing allows people to make changes or add new parts or designs to my "base" design and customize it to their needs.Anything that can be 3D printed is more accessible than anything that is injection because many people own at least one 3D printer and can print anything that their pocketbook will allow.
Since I recently made my machine work again, and found out about this contest a bit late, I have not printed any of these parts but have given all dovetail parts .5 smaller dovetails to account for any material shrinkage and deformation.
