Light duty tripod plate

thingiverse

I have a fantastic job, one of my colleagues asks if I know where he could get a plate to attach a plastic mannequin head to a tripod, about 40 minutes later I hand him a completed plate and watch his jaw drop in awe. Isn't 3D printing an amazing experience? This is a flat plate designed for mounting a lightweight object on a tripod. It uses a 2" x 1/16" fender washer with a 1/4" hole through the center, secured by a US Standard 1/4 - 20 nut that fits snugly through the plate's hole. The addition of a fender washer enhances the plate's ability to withstand lateral forces. The nut and washer are glued in place using E6000 adhesive, while four flat head screws attach the plate securely.
