Here's a close up picture of the print itself: https://imgur.com/a/flJjhGs. It's printed in PETG with 40% infill. I printed it first in PLA, but then it snapped immediately (thankfully not on my face). The only reason why I didn't use PETG from the get go was that I actually didn't know you could print it without an enclosure.

One thing that I don't like about this setup is that I'm missing a degree of freedom. If I tilt the monitor upwards, it will also tilt a little bit to the right. It's good enough for now because I want it to face pretty much straight down anyways, but I would love suggestions and advice! I was thinking about maybe copying this ball and joint I saw on r/functionalprints, but I can't find that link right now (for obvious reasons).

The monitor is this small lightweight portable monitor (comparable weight to a tablet) (https://a.co/d/0qGzPyC). The boom mic stand is a "heavy duty" mic stand (https://a.co/d/7Cjg8fs).

I think it's awesome, great job. If it can handle tugging and all then nothing to worry about i guess haha
