Description
This year we bought a new parasol and matching stand.
Unfortunately, the fastening between the granite plate and sleeve was not well solved.
So I created a precisely fitting disc, printed it out of clear TPU and now the tube holds without wobbling.
I also created an adapter that can be inserted into the tube and allows the parasol to be screwed securely in the middle. The tube on my stand isn't completely round, I think that's the case with most of these stands. Therefore the upper part is slightly oval shaped. Maybe that will work for you too.
I also created two caps, the use of which is self-explanatory =)
Printing tips:
Disc made of TPU, with 100% infill, no supports, no brim.
I printed the adapter from ABS with a 0.6 nozzle to reduce printing time, no supports necessary, possibly print with a brim.
I printed the cap with ASA because it is the one that is most exposed to sunlight. No support is necessary and I was also able to do without the brim when printing.
