    I have finally finished my design. Have a look at it and see if there are any issues 8686. However, the weight has ended up being a whole lot more than I expected. Really, it's only 1.2 ounces...

    I have done some rough calculations to estimate the potential stresses on my holder. Assuming that the internal structure of my eye tracking camera is relatively even, I would say that the density...
  3. I'm most concerned about the main bottom section...

    I'm most concerned about the main bottom section that my device will be sitting on. Most of that section is already 4 mm thick. On either side are sections that are raised up a bit, to fit the...
  4. Sorry, I haven't gotten to the rest of the design...

    Sorry, I haven't gotten to the rest of the design yet. The eye tracker camera will sit completely flat in the cradle. However, it needs to have a 17° angle. To achieve that angle, the whole cradle...

    I have attached a picture of the device sitting in the holder.

    I don't know what the minimum thickness is that I could get away with. I did find this tablet holder for a galaxy tablet: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:395373 and the main bottom section is only...
  7. need a little advice on ABS wall thickness for my first project.

    I'm getting ready to send off my first design to a printing service in a day or two, but I need to refine it a little. It seems a little thick, but that's because I'm not sure yet on how thin I can...

    My apologies. I didn't see at first where I could select different materials. I also had the wrong dimensions for my model. Looks like ninjaflex is available at a pretty low price.

    I saw plenty of services on 3-D hubs that would let me use rubber-like, which as I said before was very expensive. Are you suggesting that I ask each service one by one to see if they use a material...

    Well, that's only half of my solution. I tried to make it really clear that I'm not printing this myself. I need to find a printing service that can use one of these materials.

    Need a somewhat flexible material

    I am needing to make a small wedge-shaped piece with an approximately 17° angle. I need this to be somewhat flexible since it will be used to support an object for which I am not exactly sure of the...

    Here is a better design that also illustrates better what I am needing to know: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:395373


    I will be attaching this mount to an articulated arm with a tripod style...

    I would definitely appreciate some help with prototyping. I should have realized how complicated my idea was, considering I am not an engineer.

    I must remind you once again that I do not have my own printer. I will be using a printing service. I do not have the technical expertise to even begin to know how to do it myself. Most of what...

    I'm not that familiar with much of the 3-D printing terminology yet, so I don't quite understand everything you said. I have created another design where I have indicated the thickness of the...

    Thanks for the suggestions. I didn't quite realize how difficult it was to make an educated guess. Is there a particular printing service that could advise me on my design before printing?
  19. No response yet? I didn't think my questions...

    No response yet? I didn't think my questions were that complicated. What I really need to know is how thin can I make my tablet holder and how narrow can I make the perimeter section and crossbeam...

    I forgot to mention something really important. I don't have a 3-D printer. I was going to use a 3-D printing service since I don't have many projects planned for the future. So I need to have a...

    I am a complete novice to 3-D printing, and this is my first project. My design is a holder/tray for a Microsoft Surface Pro 4. I have attached a very rough design that I created in Tinkercad. All...
