iPad stand

(download)

The other day I was using my iPad to read a PDF file (some instructions) whilst I was doing some electronics work. Of course the iPad kept getting in the way so I propped it up against the wall behind my desk... With my ageing eyesight it was too far away! So time to 3D print an iPad stand :-)
Not exactly the most elegant design but it works. I can see the possibilities of using this in the kitchen too for reading recipes whilst cooking, but maybe need to find a splash proof cover of some sort and also a way to scroll the screen without getting flour and butter on the glass!

the .stl file for this stand is posted on the Bits from Bytes forum... http://www.bitsfrombytes.com/forum/post/printed-ipad-stand
