After modelling a ton of Doctor Who sonic screwdrivers and having them 3d printed, I've been trying my hand at other things. Nothing fantastic in the works yet but as I was making a stand for myself for holding my 11th Doctor's sonic Wiimote, I wondered if anyone else would be interested in something similar? I'm not sure who else has the 11th Doctor's sonic Wiimote, but if you do, this might be of interest to you.
It's the name of the Doctor in Gallifreyan (as seen in "A Good Man Goes To War"), extruded, with the center circle of the design housing the butt of the Wiimote so it would stand upright in the holder. I've designed an alternate version that is just the name without the hole for the Wiimote, but since I designed it initially for this purpose, I'm presenting it as such. Here's a crude example of the Wiimote in the stand:
It's a quick Photoshopping so it's not exactly to scale, the stand is a bit smaller in comparison to the Wiimote.
As usual with my 3d printed designs, it's hollow to cut back on costs, but specifically designed with a lip around the inside of the bottom so it can be filled with whatever you want to weigh it down and if it's a material that hardens but doesn't bond with the plastic, it will stay put inside of the stand due to that lip. The extra material around the bottom of the outside is there to include the smaller circles that aren't connected to the main mass of the name.
I'd also like to design an alternate version that implements the USB cable that came with the Wiimote but the stand is too short to hold the cable as is, so some remodeling would have to be done first. Either the stand itself would have to be taller, or there would have to be an additional piece connecting the USB cable from the rear of the stand.
An additional option would be to have it include alternate fittings that are inserted into the stand that conform to all the different 11th Doctor sonic props. The initial sized hole could fit the CO toy and have a ring that fits into the hole as well that housed the Wiimote, and another that fits the universal remote. Just a thought on the idea to make it more useful and interchangeable with the other props.
