Laser-Cut iPhone 3G Dock

I can\'t believe they want $49 for that thing! I was originally going to make a derivative work from Todbot\'s laser-cut dock (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:798) but as I was reviewing the files I noticed a couple of things:
1. I don\'t like the idea of nuts/bolts scratching my desk
2. I don\'t like how the bolt heads stick out the top. I would prefer that they\'re flush or below the surface.
3. It seemed too light and too small for the phone
4. It relies too much on the dock connector for strength which will fail long-term (I think)

So I made a completely new dock. There are some drawbacks to this design though. The assembly requires some acrylic cement or superglue to join the bottom two pieces to each other and, if you like, to the top five pieces.

This dock is made to use the SHORT iPhone 3G connector (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA591G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0OQ&mco=MTM3NDk1NzI) that ships with the phone. The fit for the iPhone connector is VERY tight by design
