I wanted to mount a Pixelsnap charger to the side of my nightstand. Here's my design.

This mount is designed to hold a Pixelsnap charger to the side of my bedside table.
I mounted it with two large Command strips (3M 17206). Other double-sided tapes would work, too.
I printed this on a Prusa Mini+ in Atomic "Majestic Brown" PLA. The parameters are likely not critical, but here's what I used:
0.4 mm nozzle, 0.15 mm structural profile
15% adaptive cubic infill
two perimeters
scarf seams on contours, positioned to rear (bottom side of mount)
I was initially concerned that the mount would not hold the charger puck securely enough, but in practice it holds it so well that I redesigned the initial prototype to include "finger divots" to facilitate removal of the charger from the mount.
Designed in FreeCAD.
Excuse the photo of my gnarly old free-at-the-end-of-a-yardsale nightstand.
Update (2026-10-20)
After some days of use, it turns out that (at least printed in PLA) this design is not working out well.
When the phone is deeply discharged, so that the charger runs at high power for some time, the heat generated by the charger is enough that the mount will let go of the charger puck. This does not seem to cause permanent damage to the mount. Once things cool, the mount seems to hold the charger as well as it ever did (i.e. pretty darn well). I've now reproduced this behavior several times. :-/
The mount would probably work fine if printed in a more heat-tolerant material.
I have redesigned the mount to, among other things, provide more airflow for cooling around the charger. The redesign is working well for me. Here is the redesign.
