I needed a way to comfortably hold the uConsole while sitting/laying down, that also allows for easy typing.

Update
Now with hand sized grips rather than finger sized holes (thanks u/blickblocks).

The new version is the -hand files. Original is still available but I prefer the hand sized too.

Detail

This prints fairly easily standing on its base, with tree supports. Some cleanup is required to make the finger holes comfortable.

I designed it with a .6mm nozzle and 2 walls in mind, but it should adapt cleanly to a .4 nozzle and 3 walls. Suggest high infill for a solid grip that feels good in the hands. I printed in PETG, but PLA and other materials should work just as well.

Step file is included if you want to change the thickness of the model or the diameter of the finger holes.

Print Settings

Supports: 

Yes

Resolution:

.2mm

Infill: 

100%

Notes: 

Prints well with tree supports, oriented standing on the base.

Designed for a .6 nozzle with 2 walls, if using a .4 nozzle I'd suggest shifting to 3 walls.

Higher infill doesn't heavily affect the print time but does make the grip feel more solid in the hands.
