Photos of the new design uploaded! I still have some of the old photos in the listing, just to showcase how the Playdate will look like when it's sitting on the stand, as the appearance doesn't change with this redesign.

Update 07-19-2022

I've made an improvement to this model where it no longer uses the M2 screws at the top to hold the Playdate in place. I was able to source the pin/stud that's similar to the ones on the official Playdate cover. I will try to update the listing with new photos soon. All new orders will be shipped with the newer model. Old customers that wish to get the new version please contact me and I'll see what I can do. Thank you!

What is it?

A clean and minimal design for the Panic Playdate console.

What makes it special?

Quality 3D printed parts, and similar Playdate design language. Definitely looks great with the Playdate.

All parts are printed with Proto-Pasta HTPLA filaments. The yellow plate is printed in matte fiber, purple base has a slight sheen to it, and the black base is printed with Proto-Pasta's carbon fiber PLA, surface finish is superb! Oh and the magnets makes it snap when putting it on!

Assembly

Some assembly is required. You'll need a 5/64in hex screw driver to install the screws. Do not over tighten them, you'll feel when to stop, they should look like the photos. If you would like me to assemble them for you, leave a note in the order.

Really lovely

I've been using my stand for 10 months now. I have been using an extremely small, "temporary" desk for all that time, and the first thing that appealed to me about this stand was its diminutive footprint. I also liked that the stand's creator was so committed to Panic's/T.E.'s design vocabulary, going so far as to perfectly match the original magnets and metal screws, making the Playdate and its stand look like a single contiguous object. The stand adds very little height or bulk to the Playdate console itself, lifting up the Playdate just high enough that you can sneak a right-angle usb-c charging cable under there. Though it probably wasn't necessary, I added a bit of nonskid tape to the stand's foot (as I do with every item on my desk, haha). At this point, the Playdate is now my primary clock; I love the angle of the stand, perfect for glancing down at the time. I admire it every day :)

Must have Playdate accessory

This isn't your run-of-the-mill 3d print. A lot of thought was put into it and it really shows. The corner pins work just like the official case. (I actually like these pins a bit better, the official cover pins are a little too tight.) The magnets embedded in the print make the part feel professional. The color of the filament is nice. I choose the purple base because it matches the purple cover. It looks great on my desk with the world clock screen!
