This is a base for the Adafruit tower light to allow it to be mounted onto a 1/4in tripod thread. It has been tested with https://www.adafruit.com/product/2993 but should also work with https://www.adafruit.com/product/2994.
Assembly notes
If sleeving the cables (as seen in the phots) for the light then adding heat shrink on the inside of the light will prevent the cable being pulled out from the light.
V1 specific
This is the original design which uses helicoil inserts or direct tapping, however I would recomend using the V2 design
The tripod mount is designed to work with a helicoil threaded insert and is currently sized as a clearance fit to allow the insert to be fitted after printing. If you wish to directly tap the base to take the tread use the direct tap variant of the model although this has not been tested. In addition you will need three M4*12 bolts and three M4 nuts to attach the base to the light.
V2 specific
The V2 design has been improved to use heatset inserts. in addition it now uses M5 hardware as this fits better.
1/4-20 heatset insert 8mm diameter 8mm tall
3x M5x12mm button head screws
3x M5 nuts
