¼" thread Reverse Tripod Stand

prusaprinters

Simple demountable ¼" (standard tripod, but reversed) tripod base for supporting double-ended strobe mounts, etc. The cover image shows it supporting a Makers Making Change LipSync cutaway demo unit mounted on a short strobe stand in preparation for a build event .The other image shows version 2, which was much smaller. You'll also need: ¼-20 4-lobed T-nut. These are meant for building furniture, but ATMakers discovered they fit into 3D-printed parts to make a simple tripod mount. (optional) anti-skid bumpers/rubber feet. This is not a tremendously strong support. It was originally made because the Neewer brand clamp we were using to demo the LipSync didn't fit on most maker event tables. Update, 2020-01 — updated tolerances, as they were too slack for a properly calibrated machine Print Settings Printer: Reach 3D Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 mm Infill: 40% Notes: Do not scale the model or the t-nut won't fit. Doesn't need supports: unsupported parts are hidden underneath. Post-Printing Remove the support inside the hub's t-nut well. You don't have to worry about cleaning out the small holes for the t-nut tines/lobes: leftover support material will help jam the t-nut in place. Category: Tool Holders & Boxes
