The making of a laptop stand.... The Nonstand

[photojojo]

And it would be super easy to mount a USB fan in the center towards the back to suck some heat out.

mmm good sugestion for a mod... im gonna think on that for a future version... also im designing a second version but a little bit like one of those laptops stands like the uberstand or the crane stand...

Very interested in this!! I was hoping for an higher prototype.

about the higher prototype:



works like this...



This is the mockup that Cionni want it... I still developing this to find weakpoints... for example i alreaddy notice that the legs of the stand gonna need a rib to keep them together steady... also i was changing my mind and instead of paralell legs, maybe do it look like a tree... anyway this is the other version i was working.

UPDATE:

I was going to the cutting service today but I catch a cold this past weekend and last night was a horrible night with fever, lots of cough and headache... but now im feeling much better so I delayed the visit to the cutting service for tomorrow thursday, to make a prototype on MDF wood.


About the lower version

- Added a new rib.
- More consistent structure.
- Small hangers in the front to make the laptop resto peacefully over the stand.
- Make it a little bit larger, the idea its to put over this a 14 to 15 inches laptop.



looks Sturdier than the original version and maybe its gonna be the second stage of the design process, anyway im gonna make both versions to see what works better and also convenient to do.


Also a question:

Somebody have a name for this?... I was thinking something like "Ribcage" or "Ribstand" or something proper to its morfology, but what you think??? suggestions are welcome

really dig it. This is one of the most elegant ideas I've seen for a laptop stand, and to me it looks a lot less shaky and more stable than conventional ones. Would love to see a real, tangible, completed version.

Already working on that, tomorrow I have a prototype... Pictures coming and small video...

the NonStand or RibStand sounds pretty cool BTW

or maybe something like Ribs HIGH and Ribs LOW!!!

aw, i'm working for a Architect, and i'm studying architecture and design, and you can't imagine how i like those mockups.
keep it up, can't wait for real pictures!!
smaller one, seems very good to me, maybe the taller yes, more skinny and like, trapezium structure?

anyway, i'll buy one of those.

What is the price you're aiming at?

What is the price you're aiming at?

I dont know exactly the price... but I think something near the 25 - 35 bucks including packaging for the lower Version...

the higher I dont even ended the design... shipment I have no idea yet... and payment maybe some paypal stuff or something like that...
