Framework Laptop 13 vertical dock
A vertical dock that holds a Framework Laptop 13 (about 16 mm thick closed, 297 mm wide) on its side so the expansion cards stay accessible. The slot is 18 × 300 mm with 0.5 mm clearance, a 20 mm USB-C cutout on the right, and a 140 × 90 mm base that will not tip a 1.3 kg machine. Print in two halves in PETG with 2.4 mm walls so each half fits a 220 mm bed. Open the ready-made model free, resize it on your phone or computer, then download a print-ready STL, 3MF or G-code sliced for your printer, free.

Change its numbers in the viewer for free, or ask the AI in the chat: wall thickness, hole size, the thing it clips onto. AI changes use 2 credits per request (1 for a quick edit, 3 for a redesign), paid with a plan from Maker at $7.99 a month, where the first 3 small changes are free.Dimensions of the ready-made model (editable)

A shared STL is modelled for someone else's measurements. Here you open the ready-made model free, change it to your measurements in the viewer, then download a file sized for the part you actually own, free as STL or 3MF.
Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.
No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
