Version 3 now shipping!
Version 3 is now shipping! Here’s whats different:
- Made from higher quality white resin that feels much more substantial
- New design with screw holes for secure mounting
- I no longer pre-apply the VHB tape
- The white resin is super high quality. It almost feels injection moulded and I wanted to improve the overall finish.
- I got lots of emails requesting screw holes
- Pre-applying the tape was very time consuming and slowed down production.

How to make your M1 and M3 iMac setup clean and organised (Steve jobs would approve)
If you’re reading this your probably a bit of an apple fan boy.
I love the design of the new iMac. So thin and sleek!
But when I saw it had an external power supply, I couldn’t believe it! If Steve jobs was still alive and had any hair left he’d be pulling it out!
As soon as I got my hands on one I started designing a solution to fix this abomination.
What I came up with was a 3D printed bracket that lets you mount the power adapter under your desk. Now it’s totally stealth and really tidy looking. You can’t even see it.
I posted this video 👇 to r/macsetups that quickly got over 1100 upvotes! It shot up to number 1 and remains a high ranking post. Check out the thread here
The benefits of using my 3D printed bracket:
- it tidies up your desk / home office space
- it’s easy to remove the power adapter any time
- it’s 3D printed which is rad!
- it gets your power adapter off the floor. So kids / pets can’t mess with it
- get some strong tape (like 3M VHB) and just stick that sucker right onto the desk.
- the middle backside of the desk is usually the best place
- but if your power outlets are far away, stick it in whatever corner is closet to the power outlet
The con’s of the budget approach:
- you have to stick tape directly onto the power adapter. It may leave residue or scuff it up (probably not great if you want to resell or return)
- the power adapter gets warm during use. So some tapes might melt off and loose stickyness

How the desk mounts are made
It all happens at my workshop in London.
Each desk mount is 3D printed here. I check the quality of the print. And once I’m happy it moves on to applying the mounting tape.
I use 3M VHB double sided tap. It’s incredibly strong. And makes sticking these to your desk really easy.
The surface gets wiped down with alcohol before applying the tape. To ensure it sticks really well.
Finally it get packaged up. I send everything via Royal Mail. I’ve found them to be the most reliable.
The packaging is all paper. And you can recycle it after it arrives if you’d like to.
