Anyangle Phone Stand

An adjustable phone stand with multiple viewing angles built into the same part. The top edge alternates between peaks and valleys so you can nudge your phone into any of the configured angles — from near-vertical for reading to shallow for watching video. Clamping is handled by a flexible wave pattern along the bottom.

See Predefined Models for the general workflow and how to select this model.


Parameters (sliders)

Parameters

Phone Width
Width of your phone in mm — measure the short edge (the one that will rest in the stand). 75 mm works for most 6–7" phones.
Phone Thickness
Thickness of your phone in mm including the case. 9 mm is a safe default; bulky cases may need 12–15 mm.
Stand Height
Overall height of the stand in mm (20–40). Taller stands expose more of the phone but use more plastic.
Stand Angles
Number of angle positions built into the top edge. Use an odd number (9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19) so the stand is symmetric around a central vertical position.
Clamping Tightness
Tightness of the clamp that holds the phone in place (0–100 %). Higher values grip harder; lower values make it easier to insert/remove.
Wave Size
Relative size of the sinusoidal clamping waves (50–150 %). Controls how pronounced the flex is across the length of the stand.

How it works

  1. The outline is a rounded rectangle sized to Phone Width × Phone Thickness plus a clearance margin.
  2. The top edge is carved with Stand Angles notches — each notch is a small V cut at a specific angle between 0 and 90°, giving you discrete viewing positions.
  3. The bottom is a sinusoidal wave whose amplitude scales with Wave Size and whose stiffness is tuned by Clamping Tightness. The wave provides the flex that lets the stand clamp a range of phone thicknesses.
  4. The part prints in vase mode — one continuous spiral toolpath up to Stand Height.
