[NCbasher33]

3d printed this stand it is 2 pieces so it can spin. Small parts holder on the bottom. Top has holes for shock rebuilding.

Anyone else have 3d printed suggestions?

Link to the file for anyone interested. I did not design.

That's pretty cool. Does it spin easily?

I'll take one. How much?

Right? And does it come in lime green?

 

[Outcastblxnut]

I second the lime green

Ya it spins surprisingly easy. I thought I might have to do some sanding but not at all. No way to lock it at a higher height but I figured if I needed to do that I can add a piece of a wooden dowel rod to raise it.
@Outcastblxnut @CofNailz I don't have a bright green color maybe not enough for 2 but I would have to think about price and see what it would cost to ship.

Pink for me please...?????

I'm going to have to buy a 3D printer now...!! ??

What was the cost of the material?

 

[PaPa Thorn]

You come up with a price, I was half kidding about the green, but also price the material. Depending on the price I might buy you the green, enough to do a few of them anyway.

I'm amazed what can be made with a printer. Will have to check out the process to fully understand how it works.

@CofNailz The material isn't expensive its just the time. The material for the one i printed was about $4 but took 30 hours to print lol.
Im sure I can play around with my setting to reduce that etc

Once you factor in shipping probably just better off getting a metal one off ebay.

No matter, I thought you were trying to strike up a little business and thought I'd help out a fellow forum member. I'm good with my $5 yoga block.

The metal ones are cheaply made. I wouldn't put anything on it heavier than a stampede or granite. There are likely better ones than the one I have, but the one I have just relies on a 4mm bolt/screw for the "spinning" and the thin plate of aluminum to handle all the off kilter weight. If I squeezed it in my hands, I could rip the screw out of it.

The one I have is like this:

I wouldn't even try throwing my outcast or ERBE on it. It would just break unless I centered it just right. In either case, it's not strong enough to do any real wrenching on it. I just use it to stand the stampede on on my truck rack.
