Sunshade clamp

Clamp for parasol.

I used the old tripod from my satellite dish to make a stand for my parasol.

The tube of the tripod has an outer diameter of 38 mm. The parasol has a 32 mm tube.

The two parts of the parasol clamp and parasol clamp2 are only connected with an M6 x 25 threaded screw. Whether the self-locking nut should be

I don't know, I just had it there.

I printed the parts with my Elegoo Saturn 8k and Anycubic tough Resin white.

Print settings bottom exposure 35 seconds and normal exposure 3 seconds. Layer 0.05 mm.

The construction has only one small disadvantage. Due to the fact that both pipes only have a wall thickness of 1 mm, the inner pipe has a relatively large clearance in the outer pipe.

I compensated for the 4 mm difference with the guide ring. Now nothing wobbles any more.

After the wind knocked the stand over the first time I used it, I printed another guy hook.

This is also very useful. Now I can secure the parasol with two pegs.

I also printed the guy hook with the same printer and Anycubic tough resin but in gray.

Print settings as above. It worked well, but I noticed that the meterial for the hook is not optimal.

The hook bent a little due to the tension of the line and perhaps also due to the heat, but it didn't break and has now returned to its original shape.

Bottom exposure 35 seconds and normal exposure 3 seconds. Layer 0.05 mm.
