Right now I am working on a less expensive and time consuming method of manufacturing the cradle. As for the Icarus style stand I sketched a few ideas this weekend, but did not like any of them so I am still refining it.

You're still awesome. Just something the width of the 3DS to hold it up would be fantastic. Because as of right now, I literally throw my 3DS to one side or the other playing sometimes lol

So I set out and designed and manufactured one to accommodate the added height of the capture board being installed. There are multiple pictures in the gallery.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

FYI - I've redesigned the case, the next batch will be thinner.

I just ordered mine and it will get to you tomorrow... is that the backing that you will use?

Update:
This week I have been working on refining the process of producing the cradle and thought I would post the latest version.

I am able to make them how I want them now, but I am waiting on loopy's permission to post a link to purchase them here.
