How is the tablet stand made by yourself?

Stand for the tablet - it's a very convenient thing, with which you can put the gadget in any convenient position for you. Especially it is necessary when watching movies or when reading e-books. In stores at the moment there are many options for these supports, but this primitive thing can be done with their own hands. And how to make a stand for the tablet, our today's article will tell.

Pattern

To begin with, you need to find or select a pattern for this element. And it is not necessary to contact specialists - you can find it on the Internet on your own, then download and print it on the printer.

Print the pattern carefully cut with clerical scissors. Then select the desired fabric for sewing and fold it in half (the front side folds inward). Then attach to it a pattern and a pencil (you can also use chalk or a dry piece of soap), circle the picture.

Cutting

Before proceeding with the cutting, it is necessary to sew 2 pieces of fabric or to fasten them with pins. This is done so that the fabric is smooth and neat. Now you can safely cut on the outlined contours drawn by you drawing. As a result, you will get a few details - one long rectangle and two pieces of chisel shape.

How is the tablet stand made by yourself? Installation of fasteners

According to the scheme from the acquired piece of skin, a fastening is cut out. It should be sewn with a needle and thread to a rectangular piece of fabric.

Sew cover

Guided by the pattern, attach the side pieces of the pillow to the center. Next, on the sewing machine, stitch all the seams of the cover. When all the parts are sewn, the basic shape of the stand will be obtained. In this case, the pillow-support for the tablet (namely, the back part of it) should not be sewn. The hole that formed there is filled with foam.

We insert foam rubber

Using a sharp knife and ruler, cut 1 piece of foam rubber with a size of 320x230x40 mm. Next, form the shape of the stand. The second piece of foam should measure 16x140x320 mm (base * height * length, respectively). In the same way, use a blade to make a triangle from the piece.

Now gently push the foam into the cover part and fold the two sections of the stand together. If a part of the foam does not fit you, you need to take it out and cut it off a bit.

All - at this stage, the tablet stand with their own hands has been successfully manufactured. Now you will not constantly hold a heavy tablet and enjoy a comfortable reading of electronic books, watching movies or photos.

What is the effect of foam rubber for the tablet?

Probably, each of us now thought, "Will not the computer burn in the embrace of such material?". In fact, there is no harm to the tablet with a foam rubber stand. On the contrary, due to its porosity, this material does not retain heat, which means your gadget will always cool.

How is the stand for the tablet in the car?

If you often are on business trips or just like to travel by private car, such a thing will not be superfluous for you (especially since most modern gadgets can act as GPS-navigators). So, how to make a car stand for a tablet with your own hands?

First you need to find a few strips of stainless steel. As an alternative, it is inadmissible to use plastic or cardboard (why - we'll tell you a little later). Then you have to cut the harvested parts. For a car it is enough to prepare the stripes: 2 vertical ones with a length of 170 mm and a width of 10 mm each, as well as one horizontal dimension of 250x20 mm (length * width, respectively). The edges of the bands are bent with the help of pliers in a position in which it is convenient for you to use the tablet.

The upper part of the strips of stainless steel bends a little more, since it will be installed in the car's deflector. By the way, this is not the only place where you can fix this part. The lower band serves to hold the tablet itself. The horizontal performs the role of keeping the gadget from falling sideways. Thus, the device will be securely fixed and does not fall out from the stand. At this stage, the car holder for the tablet with their own hands has been successfully manufactured. And it is fixed on thin round magnets, which can be bought at any office store. That's why the strip should be metal, not plastic. The back of magnets is fixed to the deflector (with the help of the "Moment" glue), and our support will be fastened to the front part. As you can see, the design is very primitive, but reliable enough.

Additional "upgrade" of the stand

For convenience of viewing it is possible to make additional inserts. They greatly expand the angle of the tablet, which is very convenient for viewing various data and information. Also, the stand can be sewn with a cloth or leather (depending on the owner's preferences).

Advantages of a car stand for a tablet made by yourself:

• Easy to use.
• Does not take up much space in the cabin.
• Do not spoil the overall appearance of the interior of the car.
• Easy to manufacture.

So, we found out how to make a stand for a tablet with your own hands and how to make an automobile holder made of metal strips.
