Awhile ago I purchased a 90-Degree USB-C adapter for my SteamDeck to make it easier to play while charging. Unfortunately it didn't really reduce the strain on the port as much as I would have liked so I made this little thing.

 

The adapter clips into the print which fits the chamfers on the top of the deck rather closely, transferring a large amount of the strain forces right into the plastic rather than into the USB-C port.

 

Built using fusion 360 and a modded Ender-5. Print in the default orientation with 0.2mm layer height, 20% infill and no supports are required.

 

Adapter in question (also on Amazon for significantly more $): https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804110102067.html

 

Update V2: Added a long version with a larger back support that helps keep loose adapters stable
