Rescaling usually doesn't work well because the MagSafe portion is static between all sizes. Hence, every custom sizing needs a custom re-design.

- schiffern 2y agoIn theory, with parametric design (eg OpenSCAD, Autodesk Inventor, etc) a model could allow you to enter the phone dimensions and it automatically re-calculates the correct geometry. In practice, experience says doing this (in a robust way) is a lot harder than it sounds. ;) Thanks, very nice design and write-up.
- stavros 2y agoIt's not really that much harder, as long as you know which dimensions you want to be variable from the start. Going back and changing everything after the fact is a massive pain.
- notpushkin 2y agoI’ve started to put something together in OpenSCAD: https://u.ale.sh/braunscadv1.png https://u.ale.sh/braunscadv1.png I’ll share the source once it’s a bit less painful to look at (right now everything is a bunch of copy-pasted spaghetti code :')
- cianmm 2y agoI am extremely interested in this. I’ve got a new iPhone 16 and I’d love to use it in its case with this stand.
- pbreit 2y agoI wonder if there's a version that's more of a shelf so could accommodate (m)any sized phones and with/without cases?
