Velbon Tripod Tube Cap

thingiverse

Several Velbon tripods sit at my disposal, with one unfortunate exception: the cap that crowns the central tube has vanished into thin air. I managed to survive without it for a couple of years, but now that I've acquired a 3D printer, I've crafted a simple replacement part. Perhaps this will streamline the process for someone else. I manufactured my replica in PLA, standard quality, with 10% fill density. The printing time was remarkably brief – only about 15 minutes passed before it was complete.
