Download Free 3D Model Kindle Fire HD 10 Wall Mount 3D Print Model

Summary
Wall mount for the Kindle Fire HD 10. Ideal for you ActionTiles fans!
Three versions are available. 45° corners, square corners and round corners. 45° is my favourite. Round corners will not print well vertically.
Prints in two sections, a left and a right to allow the Kindle Fire to slide in and be bolted together, it then hangs on screws in the wall. 5mm back thickness helps get a regular USB power cable to the Kindle, either from a wall outlet behind or from trunking from above or below.
Top and bottom “cutouts” are provided if you wish to use mini-trunking to bring the USB power cable to the Kindle Fire. Otherwise these can be left in place (If you prefer a cleaner cutout for trunking modify includeTrunkingCutout in the OpenScad file).
Print vertically (see screen shots). You can print horizontally but it adds a lot of supports and is prone to warping. The one in the photos was printed horizontally (to test the supports) so it’s possible, but you can see it warped slightly – even on BuildTak! 🙁
Depending on your printer it might be a tight fit. Adjust fireWidth, fireHeight, fireThickness in the OpenSCAD file if you need to open it out a bit more – Print the right hand section first to test the fit – it’s quicker.
If your printer doesn’t go as high as 200mm then adjust slicePoint in the file to reduce , but it has to be more than 50% of the model to allow for the two halves to be screwed together.
The two half’s are joined with M3 countersunk machine screws (12mm+). These thread into the plastic so don’t over tighten. The rear wall mounts also help keep the frame together.
Select your USB cable carefully. Use a right angle Micro B connector. If it’s too tight increase the size of the frame (boxWidth) or find a slightly smaller one. The round right angle ones work well, some right angle ones are a little too big. See photos for how to feed the cable when putting the two halves together.

Notes:
Print vertically.
Unless you’re printing the round corner version, then horizontally will be better.
Increase infil if you wish. I get a pattern on the face with the infil so more might be better.
Use supports, you can get away with not when printing vertical but the wall mounting holes will be messy. I set my supports to 85% overhang angle, this avoids infil in the holes for joining the two sections
