¼" thread Reverse Tripod Stand

prusaprinters

<p>Simple demountable ¼" (standard tripod, but reversed) tripod base for supporting double-ended strobe mounts, etc. The cover image shows it supporting a <a href="https://www.makersmakingchange.com/">Makers Making Change</a> <a href="https://www.makersmakingchange.com/project/lipsync/">LipSync</a> 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.</p> <p>You'll also need:</p> <ul> <li>¼-20 4-lobed T-nut. These are meant for building furniture, but <a href="http://atmakers.org/">ATMakers</a> discovered they fit into 3D-printed parts to make a simple tripod mount.</li> <li>(optional) anti-skid bumpers/rubber feet.</li> </ul> <p>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 It was originally made because the Neewer brand clamp we were using to demo the LipSync didn't fit on most maker event tables.</p> <p><strong>Update, 2020-01</strong> — updated tolerances, as they were too slack for a properly calibrated machine</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Reach 3D</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2 mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>40%</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>Do not scale the model or the t-nut won't fit.</p> Doesn't need supports: unsupported parts are hidden underneath. <h3>Post-Printing</h3> <p>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.</p> </div></p></p> Category: Tool Holders & Boxes
