Plenty of disposable vapes are built with the charging port on the bottom. This led to awkwardness for me when re-charging them, as they tend to fall over easily. My solution was craft sticks, hot-glue, and ingenuity. Presenting: the vape-charging station Mk. I and Mk. II.
Mk. I Station (obsolete)

The start of the project. I used clear tacky glue and craft sticks to form the foundation.
Drying the tacky glue. The little hole is for the USB-C cord to run through.
A little ledge for larger vapes.
Mk. II Station

The foundation of the charging station. I added extra reinforcement with chunks of popsicle sticks.
Getting ready to finish the foundation. Before I sealed it up, I inserted a balloon paper-weight ring to prevent toppling.
My polished (Jasper?) stone pitching in on the project. It weighed down the side as I hot-glued it.
Now that the foundation is finished, I began working on the top level of the charging station.
A little engraving. Just testing out my Dremel's engraving bit.
Two 5g disposables charging. The Mk. II features two holes for simultaneous charging.

I used thin sheets of cardboard to prevent objects from falling off. The station is sturdy enough to hold my electronic duster.
After much procrastination, I installed a loop so the USB-C cords would stop falling onto the ground after unplugging the vapes.
