I created this steam punk phone stand from an idea that I saw on the net. It is designed for Samsung type phones and can hold up to a Note 3 (have not tried the newer notes yet). You plug the phone...

I just finished mine. I had to make the 3" version since the 4" did not fit on my build plate. I drew the feet and the ring around the speaker myself.

Would like to hear your comments.
