Sun Catcher Mount - Hobbit Magic for the Garden

Easy Mount system for 200mm acrylic disks, to bring colour and Hobbits into your garden.

Print 3 Arms (with support touching base-plate), 1 Central Spigot and maybe an optional central TPU (soft) cushion mount (print this with the little nib bit looking up towards Mordor) .

There are no bolts to worry about, just cut off some 3mm PLA filament and feed it through the holes that mount the arms to the central mount.

1. Mount 2 Arms to the Central Mount, secure them with short pieces of 3mm filament.
2. Snap on the optional central TPU cushion mount onto the top of the Central Mount.
3. Place your Colourful acrylic disk snugly under the lips at the end of the Arms.
4. Insert third Arm, this locks the disk into place.
5. Inset a 8mm rod using hole underneath the Central Mount (Plastic, wood stick, metal, carbon fibre, etcetc)
6. Place in the Garden in a strategic place where you want the Hobbits to congregate.

If you get the “Translucent” or “Fluorescent” type disks they will collect light even when cloudy. They also glow around the edges, and are quite pleasing to the eye.

They make good rain/hailstone protectors when placed over delicate plants.

They also look good when rain collects into droplets on top of them, the droplet reflect/refract the light. (When i look at them outside i can easily see if its raining or not).

They also cast a colourful shadow onto the floor, plus reflex a disk of light (mirror style) at the right “Angle-of-the-Dangle”.

N.B.1 :- They do not scare the Birds.

N.B.2 :- Search Aliexpress :- 3MM,4MM, 5MM Round Translucent Color Acrylic Display Board (I can recommend the vendor “sevenneonlighting ”).
