3D Printed iPad Drawing Stand & Magnetic Apple Pencil Holder
These are the STLs you can use to make the drawing stand for your specific iPad.
Make sure you know what model/year your iPad is to get the compatible 3D model for your iPad.
I uploaded a instructions video if that helps assembling this a little easierhttps://youtu.be/xPKHOEz55pg
Tips
I only needed to use supports for a small portion of the legs but your needs may vary depending on your printer and print settings.
Some areas like the bolts for the stand are fitted 1/1, if your printer tolerances are not that good, I will try to update them for different tolerances.
I am using a 0.4mm nozzle to print, 0.2mm layer height. I would not recommend using larger nozzles unless you are utmost confident of your printer's tolerances.
I highly recommend using Krazy Glue, not just any random glue you have around the house. It dries relatively quick and bonds things together extremely well.
List of things you will need:
Krazy Glue: https://amzn.to/3CRAPeZ
MagSafe Puck: https://amzn.to/3AmsbnM
MagSafe Rings: https://amzn.to/3ZltnSs
Rubber Pads: https://amzn.to/4fZ6Tfo

Using the links gives me a 2-4% commission. Using the links is an easy way to support things like this at no additional cost to you since you needed the supplies for the model anyways. I would like to be able to do more things like this but it does take time to make these type of things and if it is unsustainable then I would simply have to stop. I am really grateful to receive support in any way possible whether you decide to use the links or just by simply watching the videos.
Please refer to the YouTube Video if you haven't already for full details regarding this 3D Print and Fusion 360 file.
Please use the exact items listed so that everything fits to the exact dimensions of the 3D models.

Updated iPad mini model
5 December 2024
I noticed an error on some of the files for the 4th iPad Piece and corrected the model. I am really sorry for not catching the error sooner.
13" Pro model updated missing screw holes.
I updated the files with looser Tolerances for those having issues with fitment.
I understand people have a lot of different tolerances for their printers and it may take some time to get everything to work for everyone but I am more than willing to make any adjustments to help everyone out.

Made a magnetic pencil holder for the Apple Pencil
You will need these magnets for the holder and doubled sided tape to adhere it to your desired location.
I did not need to use glue but feel free to glue it down if your printed tolerances are different.
