This is a display stand for the SOTA (Summits On The Air) Amateur Radio award of either 'Shack Sloth' or 'Mountain Goat' achieved for 1000 chaser or 1000 Activator points.
I obtained the Shack Sloth award in 2012 as 2E0CTW and bought one of the glass awards to celebrate. It has been kept in box most of the time, as it was difficult to display stood up, so I decided to design and print a display stand for it.
There are two versions uploaded. One for Shack Sloth and the other for Mountain Goat.

I found it best to place a piece of shiny white card under the award when in the stand, which makes the detail show up a little more.
I Assume that the awards are more or less the same size. Mine is 92mm wide x 90mm High x 11mm thickness and the stand has been designed to fit that size with a little leeway.
Please check that your award will fit before printing!

Supports - I found on my Anet A8 that it printed fine without supports. However, if your printer is a bit finnicky, you may find you need to add some custom supports to the mountain design on the sides, just to support the downward points on the mountains.
