Custom fit holder/clamp for a Kindle Oasis 3rd gen with its cover/case.

 

Has mounting holes for both universal AMPS style mounting balls and RAM mount 3-hole mounts. Should be compatible with most 1" (B-size) balls.

 

I have it clamped to my bed's headboard, so I can read comfortably at night, with help of a remote page turner.

 

Note that clamping force is dependent on what springs and screws you use. If its too weak, switching to longer springs and/or shorter screws can improve it. It can generally hold a Kindle in place through most motions and vibrations, but it probably isn't suitable for stunt drivers or offroading.

 

I printed in Nylon PA6-GF and PTFE, but you can probably print in any material, as it's not terribly dependent on flexibility, and has enough intrinsic strength to hold up what is a relatively lightweight device.

 

Assembly is required, you will need:

 

  • Screws:
    • 2x M2.5x10 screws
    • 4x M3x30 screws
    • 2x M5x10 screws
  • Heat set inserts:
    • 2x M2.5x2.5x3.5 heat set inserts
    • 4x M3x4x5 heat set inserts
    • 2x M5x6x7 heat set inserts
  • Springs:
    • 4x compression springs, I used 5.5x41x0.40mm ones
  • 1 RAM “B” round plate with ball, or similar AMPS mount
  • 1x Kindle Oasis 3rd gen
