I happened to find the Vevor microscope on sale for less than 210 USD. Given it's functionality it outshines every other microscope stand for the same price (Available to me).
Naturally I wanted a way to adapt the stand to my vintage Olympus microscope. Specifically I adapted it to the 15.8mm Equipment Mounting Shaft adapter found on the SZ-STB1 microscope stand. I found it has better performance than the height adjust on the Vevor anyway.
Furthermore, this style allows me to lock the ball rotation down and use the adapter to rotate the angle of my microscope as I find useful, but I imagine this could be annoying for some users.
I printed this design on a Ender 3 with a direct extruder and a PEI plate and had no problems. I printed my design using Inland PET-G.
The design uses the same M5x45 bolts than come with the stand; it does require two M5 hex bolts. I found some in black so went with them to blend in.
