This Adjustable Geared Smartphone Holder Would Also Make a Great Chair Buck

Robert Lorincz's one-day design

Thingiverse denizen Robert Lorincz created this adjustable 3D-printed geared smartphone holder that you can adjust to find your preferred angle:

I think it would be useful as the buck you use to experiment with different angles while working on a more finished product. Heck, I think a scaled-up version of this could also be useful as the skeleton for a chair buck.

Either way Lorincz deserves kudos; this is not bad for something "designed over Sunday."

why are the teeth the full width of the curved part? You could remove all the extra "gear" material and just have a small line of teeth in the center to lock the position, no need for gears that wide. Probably reduce about 40% of the material used...

    "looks" like a waste of material.... "nice" is subjective.
