That approach only makes sense if your time doesn't have much value.

Given how the back end with the lenses is angled downwards, dust would have difficulty getting to the lenses. Additionally, even if that were not true, a Kiwi Designs lens protector pad should work fine.

I do have a lens protection pad as well.

This thread is funny but I agree with OP, if you are not interested in 3D printing, then get it as a one-time thing from Etsy, but if you like 3D modeling, and have always wanted one, I think this would be a perfect opportunity to get one, but getting an entire 3D printer setup, which includes space to put it, time to search for the model, find a printer, get the printer, setup the printer, tweak the model, a 3D modeling program, knowing how to use the 3D modeling program, and all the cleaning up afterwards is definitely not worth just one print.
No it is! Its been pointed out by a couple in here that I should have purchased a $1000 3D Printer, buy the spools, research the design, and then print it. It makes total sense that since I have zero interest in 3D prinitng that I should buy a printer and create a design for the one time I ever want to use it.
The next time I see a nice suit I want to buy I'm gonna rethink it. I should invest in a sewing machine, thread, and go to design school and make my own. Then self-tailor it because why pay someone to do that when I could do it myself.
I'm also going to start cutting my own hair because I can, therefore I should.
Or cut out the middleman and lay them yourself. That’s what I did it’s so simple!
You are not considering the OP had to use his knowledge and take the time to design this stand. Most likely hours of planning, trial and error until he got his design right.
And at $3.00 you may only be considering the materials used, not the equipment depreciation, energy used, OPs time to observe the process, etc..
I'm reminded of the old joke about the guy whose car won't start, so he calls a mechanic. The mechanic comes out, opens the hood, bangs his wrench a couple of times and tells the customer to try starting it. It starts immediately. The mechanic hands him a bill: "Fix engine: $100." The guy protests, "All you did was bang your wrench a couple of times. That costs $100?" The mechanic says, "You're right. Let me see that." He scratches out the original amount and hands the bill back. "Bang engine with wrench: $5; Knowing where to hit: $95."
$70 is a reasonable price for someone to ask for the work necessary to be able to use $3 worth of material to refashion into something that nice.
Funnily enough, was considering getting a stand before bought the actual AVP - Travel Case seems perfect for the desk:
* looks nice
* easy to put AVP inside
* super-padded and secure, no risk of knocking the stand over
* blocks dust (which is an issue for where I live)
Of course if you don't specifically want to show off the device. But then, case looks cool too.

Y’all can also use one if your school has a maker space or engineering classroom- mines has both resin and FDM 3D printers. Even sign up for Solidworks, Fusion 360 or AutoCAD classes if they have them for free and bring your Vision Pro and measure it up while you make the stand. Takes time but saves you money 💰
I just ordered this from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4Z4CH4V?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
I like it primarily because of the small footprint and ease of picking up the AVP and putting it down.

I bought this UPERGO stand from Amazon. I like it so far - keeps it to a real small footprint. Only thing it is missing is a cable wrap/hook for the battery cord. It is a bit taller than I’d like, but they idea is the strap doesn’t touch the desk surface/battery.
EDIT: just realized dandrewk just posted the same stand. +1 from me.
