About this model

One more octopus arm thingy. This one holds up your tablet or phone! Should fit an iPhone 4/5 in portrait or landscape no problem. Intended scale: 118mm x 114mm x 88 mm (approximately) Note this is just an experimental model, I have not printed this myself Update: Slight update to the right arm, the tip of it is now pointing upwards with the hope of easing printing without supports ( very hopeful). See The New Version: It should address many of the issues people have had with this one.
