Gear Phone Mount Description:This is my cell phone holder for car with gear mechanism. This consists of two spur gears and a rack. When the phone is placed in the holder, the rack is pushed down and the arms on both sides snap upwards to stabilize the phone.

There is also a print file available to give guidance on how the different parts should be printedRequired Parts:Part …
