I'm someone who loves to tinker with various gadgets, I also love the concept of portability. Sometimes I find myself prototyping, breadboarding, or just tinkering with different microcontroller development boards on my laptop, but I want to stay mobile and have the ability to take my projects where ever my laptop goes. I always thought it would be awesome to somehow to attach my breadboarded projects to my laptop. That's when I saw this magnetic phone holder... and got my hands on these magnets. Thus the Lap Lab Mini Project was born!

Print Instructions

Printed with standard 0.2mm settings except I have initial layer speed set to 10mm/s. Supports should be enabled.

  • The magnet holder will print without supports but if you must, be careful not to punch the supports through the magnet holes. The other side is thin, so you want to sort of wiggle the supports from side to side to break them off and pull them out. 
  • When printing the clips, be sure to print at least 4 of them on their side without a raft if possible. The rough bottom a raft leaves will make them hard to use.
