Hello, Many of you are concern this stand could damage the laptop by bending it with the leverage force. It's true that I didn't consider this case when I designed it 🤔

While trying it out, I didn't feel like it would damage the laptop, unless something catastrophic would happened like an heavy object or a pet dropping on it, but it is a legitimate concern ! I might reconsider using it... I was wondering why this type of stand is common for phones but inexistant for laptops, well now I understand !

Thank you all for the constructive feedback !

It's not so much how much it damages it in its resting position, it's more that when you apply even relatively small amounts of force near the hinge area, it can definitely do some pretty nasty damage.
