Small Multifunction Tripod

I needed a lightweight stand for a cardboard Christmas tree, and I took the opportunity to challenge myself by creating it with 3D printing from scratch.

The final product is a small and lightweight one-piece tripod with a Ø10 mm fitting, to be used alone or with the aid of inserts:

1. Cardboard insert: insert the cardboard into the slot and the insert into the tripod. If the cardboard tends to move, it can be secured in place with small nails or screws using the two pre-drilled holes.
2. Adapter insert from Ø13 mm > Ø10 mm
3. Adapter insert from Ø12 mm > Ø10 mm
4. Adapter insert from Ø11 mm > Ø10 mm

To adapt to uneven surfaces, three feet are available to snap onto the bottom of the tripod, but alternatively, simple adhesive felt pads can be used.

I designed this tripod and the inserts for light use, to support cardboard or small objects like small Christmas trees; for heavier objects, try increasing the infill.
