I love the dock! How can I go about making one myself?

The easiest way would be to print it with a 3D Printer using my files from printables. Do you own a 3D printer? If not there are online services you can send my file and they print it for you. If your from the United States I heard they have 3D printers at some libraries.

Edit:

Here is a link to my print files, you can download and use them for free:

Oh and keep in mind, that the dock is made for fitting my TPU case (also printable):

Oh! I thought it was like hollow on the inside with custom electronics, but this works equally well! I don’t own a 3D printer and I’m not from the US, but my friend owns one, so I could commission him. Thanks for the guide!

My pleasure. I also made a travel case if you’re interested:
