This is a very simple low-level micro tripod, which I made to hold a mini projector. The original tripods was made from injection moulded plastic apart from the 1/4" threaded screw, and one of the legs broke off because the pivot mechanism was only a few mm thick. I decided to make a new one, using metal shelf pins to create the pivot for the legs. I CAD modelled the design and 3D Printed the parts with the first version only push fitting the two parts of the head sections together, thus popping apart when too much weight was added. The second version included through holes to secure parts together, but the legs were too short and projector became top heavy. I made subsequent versions with longer legs and protrusions on the legs to prevent them from being over extended when closed, which could damage the parts.
