Manfrotto Quick Release to VESA Adapter

thingiverse

I required a high-end monitor stand to elevate my presentation to the next level. Alas, the retail price and rental costs were far beyond my budget constraints. Taking advantage of my resourcefulness, I transformed an old screen, combined with my trusty tripod that already sat idle in my inventory, and cleverly fabricated an adapter that enables a standard VESA display to be seamlessly attached to any standard photographic tripod setup. In the end, I saved a staggering amount of cash that could have been spent elsewhere. I'm pleased to report that this innovative solution has received recognition on various platforms, including Google+ user KLarsLohn's inspiring story (viewable at plus.google.com/+KLarsLohn/posts/PHRNroxSfcU for further insights). For those interested in replicating my achievement, I offer the following step-by-step guidance: Though monitors have indeed become lighter in recent years, to ensure optimal durability and maximum strength, this adapter is fabricated with robust construction throughout.
