# Summary

Storytime:

3 months ago a work collegue asked me "Hey you got a 3d printer. Can you print something for me?"

He showed me the work of ClydeRadcliffe here on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2720756)

I liked the idea and tried to print it for him.

While the print was running i started to think (always dangerous with IT people like me).

There was one main thing i did not like about ClydeRadcliffe's design and that was how the differnt parts are held together.

The Switch itself is held by the tension of the case and the joycons are held by the friction between themself and the carriage.

I wanted to fix this by adding a bottom to the case and nodges for the joycons locking mechanism.

I tried to do this by editing the STL file.
After two weeks of frustration and installing different 3D/Cad programs i gave up.

1 month ago i sat my ass down and started to work on creating my own design for a Switch Portrait Grip.


Facts:

And this here is the "finished" product :)
You will notice that the switch will have a bit of room in the holder.
I did this so i could add a thin adhesive velvet foil to the holder.
