This eggcup is printed on demand in laser sintered polyamide. The eggcup can hold a medium egg and due to the flexible nature of the printing material, it will adapt its shape to larger eggs as well.

The product at this page is the PadFoot model that fits perfectly to iPad 2 as well as the 3d and 4th generation iPad. For PadFoot for iPad 1, go here.

PadFoot, the popular viewing stand for iPad, is now available for iPad 2 and the 3d and 4th generation iPad.

PadFoot clips to the corner of your iPad and will securely stand it upright in both landscape and portrait mode. It’s great for watching movies, clips and slideshows, for making FaceTime calls, as well as for use in presentations and (shop) displays.

At just 10 grams, PadFoot is now even lighter and smaller than its predecessor, with an increased viewing angle for even more viewing comfort - while it’s as stable and sturdy as ever.

Price information

The prices of PadFoot have been reduced by up to 20%. If you like, you can save shipping costs by combining this product with another product, like the ones from my shop; or just browse the galleries. A wholesale pack of 4 PadFoots, at up to 30% lower prices, is available here.

General information

PadFoot is manufactured in tough but lightweight, 3d printed polyamide with a fine surface texture. Check the materials section of this website for more information. Colors are seasonal; current availability is shown at the bottom of this page - this may be different from the colors shown in the images above. Each product ordered is individually manufactured, just for you. If you are new to the Shapeways site: to order, you'll be asked to create an account (it's easy; you can even log in with Facebook or Twitter).

It's best to use PadFoot on a stable and horizontal surface. Always make sure that your iPad is placed all the way into the opening in PadFoot; resting the iPad on one of its two edges without buttons. PadFoot will only work if your iPad has no cover on it. Product ships in basic Shapeways packaging. For more information, visit www.michielcornelissen.com; if you have any feedback or questions on this item, please feel free to contact me directly at michiel (at) michielcornelissen.com.

Some of the reactions on PadFoot, when it was introduced:

“PadFoot - Finally an iPad stand I can settle on. The iPad stands up perfectly, and there is absolutely no wobble or shake... PadFoot is also absolutely great to watch movies on the iPad...”
smokingapples.com

“... I was surprised by how small and lightweight it was... the PadFoot is extremely portable... PadFoot will hold the iPad securely at an angle perfect for viewing slide shows or videos.”
the-gadgeteer.com

“This Little iPad Stand Can Still Do a Lot of Standing... The PadFoot does the job and stays out of the way.”
gizmodo.com

PadFoot: one of fastcodesign’s most wanted products...
fastcodesign.com

“... I think the PadFoot... is just the perfect partner for the iPad”
gizmodiva.com

“ Simple yet adorable: The PadFoot iPad stand. At first, I thought the iPad’s inherent lack of stand was a flaw... Now I’m kind of happy that the tablet didn’t come with one. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have cute little items like this...”
todaysiphone.com

“... the Padfoot, a minuscule, efficient iPad stand that is beautiful in its simplicity.”
freshbump.com

“We’ve seen quite a few iPad stands since it hit the market, but the Padfoot by Dutch designer Michiel Cornelissen is just a bit better than what I’ve seen so far... Perfect!”
minimalissimo.com

“Padfoot ist einfach und genial.”
stilsucht.de

“Received my PadFoot. Works great!”
Robert, New York

...bought a PadFoot... Best iPad accessory ever! You won’t be sorry, it is so light... I love it.
‘xultar’

“Just got my beautifully minimal PadFoot iPad stand from Michiel Cornelissen. Nice!”
‘mr_phillip’, Scotland

“I’ve bought many accessories for iPad, but PadFoot is by far the most useful one I’ve come across. Simple, qualitative and ingenious.”
Mario, The Netherlands

Tool, symbol or both?

The bits on this pendant are based on actual bit sizes - including an IKEA standard tool - so 'a bit cross' can be used for light jobs. Just remember the steel isn't tempered like 'real' tool bits and tolerances may vary.

I recommend using it with a red leather cord of about 78 cm/ 31 inch.

Over The Top is a world-record 17x17x17 Rubik's Cube. It makes quite pretty patterns. It can take many, many hours to solve. The puzzle was first presented live to the world at  at the New York Puzzle Party Symposium, Saturday Feb. 12th. The YouTube video was be published after that event, and the record was accepted by Guinness World Records.

The first public evolution of the Animaris Geneticus Parvus, #5. Featuring a fully working Theo Jansen mechanism as used in his work "the Rhinoceros". The mechanism is printed assembled, and will work without further assembly right after birth from the printer.
Also see our new Propeller Propulsion add-on, to have your Strandbeest walk autonomously!

A few tips to consider:

- After birth there might be a little powder left in some joints, or it might not go supersmooth. This will fix itself after the animal has a little bit of practice!

- Some surfaces work better than others. The legs require a little friction, and a flat surface. So for example: A rough table or floor, thin flat carpeting, or a thin rubber sheet. 

- The best way to push it is by its nameplate. Do not push down, but forward

Both a tribute to ubiquitous, and lovely, hexagonal colour pencils, and a representation of what was coined by Joris Peels as 'combinatory manufacturing'.

Combine the connector piece with any set of 36 standard hexagonal pencils of about 7.0 mm cross section (measured at the smallest diameter). These types of sets are available around the world from many department stores and art supply stores - I’ve seen good sets for as little as 5 euro.

Examples of pencils that fit are Stabilo Aquacolor 1600, and Caran d’Ache Prismalo I, but there are many more. I’ve recently heard that in the US, Prismacolor Verithin Colored Pencils (available from Amazon and others) work well. Normal black pencils often have the same size and shape and can be used too.

If you are new to the Shapeways website: to order you will be asked to create an account (it's easy). Assembly may leave slight marks on pencils. For more information on this or other products, please visit www.michielcornelissen.com.

I would like to introduce to you the sculpture »You & Me« from the »Scrappies« figurine family. It represents love, affection and mutual commitment - emotions that everyone values and never lose their significance.

The »Scrappies« are inspired by everything you can find in a scrapyard: old nuts and bolts, tin cans, pipes, coils, parts of ball bearings.

 

But they are actually manufactured in a totally different, novel »3D printing« process. Each of them is made in one piece from fine metal powders.

 

I had initially made the »You & Me« sculpture as a unique gift for our 30th wedding anniversary, but when Christiane placed the Scrappies on her office desk, her collegues loved them so much that we thought why not share it and make it available to others.

 

Therefore, and for a limited time, I am offering you my work here, outside of the traditional channels of exhibiting and selling art. Each figurine will be customized with your initials of choice. I will make and ship a unique »You & Me« sculpture for every supporter, be it one or many.

The Road Popper is a bike-mounted bottle opener that we developed for our own use and decided afterward to share. We designed it to fasten discreetly to the rails on the underside of the saddle to help keep your bike looking crisp. So far, it's worked on all the bottle caps we've tried it on. Material options are bronze infused stainless steel. Finish options are plain (on the right in the photograph), matte gold, glossy gold, matte antique bronze, and glossy antique bronze. The Road Popper is not intended for alcoholic beverages. Chromoly does not condone cycling while under the influence of alcohol.


Things You'll Need for Installation (not included with purchase)

2 - 3/8” long #6 flat head (countersunk) screws
2 - Nylon locknuts
1 - Screwdriver
1 - Needle nose pliers


Bike Requirements

Conventional bike saddle. If you're not sure if your seat is standard or not, give it a measure. The rails should be 7 mm's (0.275 inch) in diameter and roughly 44mm's (1.73 inch) apart.

At least 228mm's (9”) of space between the underside of your seat and your tire.

9mm's (3/8”) of open rail behind where the seat attaches to the seat post.


*Because this product is fabricated to order it is more expensive that it would be under normal manufacturing conditions. For this same reason it takes about 14 working days to arrive. The cost of shipping (via UPS) is included in the list price. Please note that duties and taxes may be applied to your order when it enters your country.
