[Q] custom desk dock

---

My dad owns his own cnc machine shop and I'm contemplating designing a small but heavy dock that is lined with felt that we can sit the transformer in. It would hold it at only one angle but it would also have a slot milled out which would allow you to keep the usb cable plugged in. Would most likely be anodized to match the color of the transformer as well. Need to design and work on costs. Potentially could be used for other tablets down the road. Haven't seen anything like what I invision yet.

Just wondering if there would be any interest in these if I made them available?

Need more info but I am in the market for such a product.

Keep us up to date.

P.S. simpler the better for me as far a design.

Found something on amazon, check out the " Thought Out Stabile iPad 2 Stand - Black" it's almost 4 lbs. and made of steel.

Depends also what price range.

Price point would be the clincher for me. I also think that simplicity is important as well. Meet those and I would buy.

The Thought Out iPad Stand is a simple and clever design that looks like it would work for many different types of devices. However I think the developer is killing himself with the price and by marketing directly to Ipeople only.

I agree with you totally, the price is a little high ( you should see what they want for the aluminum colored one ) and the marketing is limiting, I only suggested this one because of its weight. There are similar stands that cost less ( also limited by imarketing ) but they also weigh less..........anyway, I'm still curious to see what the OP comes up with, sounds like it's going to be a real solid build.

I use this:

It's sturdy, folds to pocket size and holds all my tablets (and phone!) in either portrait or landscape. No slot for the USB cable, though.
