This is a custom wall mount for my 2nd screen Dell P2417H (simmilar models with same stand will fit as well). It's a 24" monitor with pivot stand (can adjust up/down, portrait/landscape and tilt), but it doesnt suppport vesa mount (edit: this is wrong, it does support vesa, but then cant use pivot mechanism). I wanted it on the wall so I printed 3 parts out out of PLA. One part is screwed in the wall and the other one is securing monitor in place using zip ties. 3rd part is a small shelf that is mounted underneath (with original screw for monitor base), but its there mostly to provide a flat surface between monitor and a wall.
I've been using it (2 actually) for few years in old place and I love it. It can be a bit tricky to tighten zip ties, but its only done once anyway.
I'll upload files if someone needs them
Huh? Dell makes monitors that don't support VESA mounts?
I'm 99% sure this monitor has a the ability for a VESA mount. The specs you linked say it has. According to Dell they even sell the thing without a stand, that wouldn't make sense if it didn't have another way to mount it.
The manual explains the VESA mount: https://dl.dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_display_projector/esuprt_display/dell-p2417h-monitor_user's_guide_en-us.pdf
This just goes to show that people with a 3d printer would rather design their own solution rather than taking 10 seconds to figure out an already existing one.
Haha I agree Im like that! But IMO, In this case it really made sense to design and print a custom mount to keep existing pivot mechanism, at least for me
I could be more specific. You are right, it supports VESA, but only if you remove pivot stand (the reason I bought the monitor in first place). This way I can have it wall mounted and still use tilt/pivot/vertical motion. Pivot stand build quality is great
Pivoting+tilting+swivelling VESA wall mounts are also a thing, so you wouldn't have needed to choose the display based on its stand
I personally wouldn't have risked my monitor on being able to design a part that is able to last just to save the few bucks a mount costs. So props to you, I guess.
Im aware all kind of mounts exist, my setup is made from parts I had at home (including monitor ofc). I didnt want to spend 50€ or more on decent mount for 140€ monitor, but I respect that most people would just buy off the shelf product. Just sharing what I think someone might find usefull.
Strength wise, Im not worried at all, but Im clumsy enough that one monitor fell and screen broke while moving last year (RIP)
Buddy of mine has 6 Dell monitors he inherited from a network upgrade that have no VESA holes.
