Help Velcro + Tablet

[ninjakyle]

Has anyone used velcro to mount your tablet to something?

I am trying to figure out how much to use.

Too little and it falls off or doesn't seem secure
Too much and you have a hard time getting it off

Does anyone have insight?

Sorry, Man this question is a bit like how long is a piece of string! You'll have to experiment!

Can I suggest possibly sticking the velcro to the stand you intend to use then using pieces of velcro on say a piece of scrap wood (possibly the same or similar weight / dimensions?) and seeing how much works for you? I know you'll possibly be wasting the velcro you stick on the wood but it maybe worth the cost in the long run?

How about using a picture frame stand for the time being instead see if that works for you?

This was great advice and worked great.

I ended up using two strips that are about 4in by 3/4in each. This ends up being MORE than strong enough. (I used double the velcro on my sample and could barely get it off the stand)

This is with industrial Velcro brand stuff. (in case anyone else wants to try it)
