MagSafe Charging Stand

This phone stand was designed to perfectly incorporate a MagSafe charger, allowing my iPhone 13 mini to be propped up at an angle, in any orientation, using only the magnets in the charger. The stand has four feet to prevent slipping (made of hot glue), a precisely sized cable cutout, and a shape with a carefully designed center of mass for proper balance.

I designed this stand using SolidWorks and produced it using tools at the Elko Engineering Garage.

My design is featured on the University of Alberta’s Elko Engineering Garage “Garage Makes” page.
