Tripod Mount for Umbrella

thingiverse

This is a mount that screws onto the end of your umbrella handle and attaches to an ordinary camera tripod. On a windless day, waiting in line for 4 hours in the sun to buy tickets to see Trent Reznor, this kind of thing could come in very handy (cuz, y'know, you're a 40-something pale-skinned ex-goth that loves Nine Inch Nails, aren't ya?). I've matched the dimensions of this one for a Promaster 6030 tripod to fit perfectly with a 35.4-diameter x 25mm height cylindrical umbrella handle. So if your dimensions are different from that, I'm taking requests! (someday I'll do this in the customizer... until that day... I'm just taking requests). It took me a whopping 30 minutes to design this, but if it saves just ONE LIFE from skin cancer, it'll be worth it. No need to print with support. I've even added a skirted cap for more reliable adhesion to the print bed. If you found this useful, it would bring me great joy to see your work - so be sure to share. Or, better yet, please feel free to dump a bitcoin or two here (I'm trying to collect as many as I can before the apocalypse): 1Py3TUeR8noBN2giHyFV1GfB6x3Kh2WEVv ... include a note to the effect of "Hi 3E8, thanks for the umbrella tripod holder thing... my life is infinitely better on account of it and please accept this small handful of bitcoins in gratitude". You're welcome! (in advance). Also, feel free to peruse my other submissions which are almost as varied as they are many: http://www.thingiverse.com/3E8/designs.
