    I spent 30 minutes sitting my car last night trying to think of a better way to mount my phone because I just got a 3d printer.

    It turns out that inventing still requires thought, and lots of it.

      Honestly, it’s probably not worth the effort to try and use a 3D printer for that unless you are printing with the more difficult materials like ABS or similar.

      PLA gets droopy just from the sun shining on it and will melt in a car in the summer. PETG is a bit better to the point where I personally haven’t had it deform from heat yet but from what I have heard the differences aren’t that big.

        I was initially going to do a dashcam mount, but I did read about the sun melting PLA. I live in Australia so it’s a bit of a put-off.
