Remake Challenge Winner: iPhone Tripod Mount

The winner of this ReMake Challenge is the last entry, a sleek one-part print that hugs the iPhone like a glove.  Its maker, Aylr, is promising a maker-splosion when his Cupcake CNC arrives.  We’re looking forward to it!

I was really excited that I got multiple responses in Thingiverse from the first ReMake challenge!  All three are excellent for their own reasons.  One was done hardly any time at all after the posting, which proves Thingiverse users are quick.  One was a gloriously intricate clamp-mount that could take any smart phone at all or indeed anything one might want to put on a tripod of a certain size category, which proves Thingiverse users are clever.

The winner is a single-print module that required only a hex nut to complete its design, which proves that Thingiverse users totally totally get what personal fabrication means.  It means that you can have the perfect part for the job.  It means you can have something designed for your circumstances rather than what everyone else is having.  This tripod mount wins in part because of its elegance, and in part because of how obviously molded to the application it is.

Mad props to all three of our excellent entries!
