Compact Headphone & Screen mount for table

This is a portable headphone stand that pinch mounts to tables .75" – 2.5" (inches). Takes only seconds to setup or store away. I wanted to see if you could make a mount that doesn't use a screw clamp and turns out that you can. 

One can also slide the mount into your waistband if you don't have a table :)  

Please Read, this design is unique and only works one way so follow the instructions on how to insert the rods.

Print Settings (What I used)

• Bambu X1C
• PLA (you want a material that is rigid / springy, I feared PETG would deform too much)
• .4 Nozzle
• Smooth Bed
• .2m Layer height
• 3 walls
• NO SUPPORTS!!!!

This printed easy first try with no issues so I didn't really mess with print settings too much. if you make the rods composed entirely of walls they should have more flex and work much better than one containing infill. 

Here is the base:

Here are the rods, print all the sizes and see what works best for you. 

HOW TO USE:

The stand mounts to tables using triangle rods that store inside the stand itself. To use, Remove the rods and stick them through the mount as shown in picture below.

1. The Top rods should have their flat bottom touching the top of the table. 
2. The Bottoms rods will have the triangle tip pushing into the underside of the table. 
   1.  I recommend using the 90mm rods for the bottom because the longer the rod the more flex it will have allowing for more range of pressure. 
3. Start with the bottom rods all the way out and then begin pulling them back until they are snug. 

Experiment with different rod sizes and configurations for your table such as, 2 rods on top 4 on bottom, 4 on top 1 on bottom, etc…. there are no rules do what works for you

There are 3 Rods types

• 45mm small head (Intended to be used on top)
• 90mm small head (Use on top or bottom)
• 90mm Big Head (use on bottom, has taller head so might fit the table better than the small head.) 

Considerations & Helpful info

• This has tight tolerances and after your first print you will need to carefully slide one of the 90mm rods in and out of every hole to sort of sand it down and make it smooth. Just one or two passes is fine. You still want some resistance so rods stay inside when transporting it. 
  • If your rod gets stuck DO NOT TRY AND PULL IT OUT BY THE HEAD, due to the print orientation the heads are weak and will snap. Instead insert another 90mm rod in the opposite hole and push it out. 
  • If tolerances are too tight I can create a file with 6.6mm rods instead of 6.7mm just comment if that's the case. 
• If your rods fall out of the hole on their own you can use a hair tie to wrap around the perimeter when storing.

• This was originally designed with 3 columns but I figured you might want to carry extra triangle rods with you incase one breaks so I made it wider to 5 columns. I have included both versions you decide which one you like the most

• Near the end of the design I realized Hercules logo is 3 triangles so I figured might as well put it on since I'm already using triangles and this was made for their contest.
