This is a lightweight tripod connector I designed for mountaineering. It lets you quickly turn three trekking poles into a stable tripod platform. The top supports a standard camera head, making it great for outdoor photography or mounting light gear.

Top Interface The bottom has a standard 1/4” threaded hole. You’ll need to install a 1/4” screw yourself, then add a 1/4” to 3/8” adapter ring to mount a typical tripod head.

Trekking Pole Interface There are three holes, each 12mm in diameter, which fit most trekking poles. I recommend using a thin cord (like 0.8mm utility line or UHMWPE rope) to tension between the poles—it greatly improves stability.

Print Settings I used PLA-CF with a 0.4mm nozzle, 4-wall thickness, and 30% infill. Load tested over 10kg—plenty strong for a typical camera setup.

Extra Parts The files also include two small but essential accessories: a hook and a tensioner (basically a 3-hole guyline adjuster). They can be tied to your trekking pole straps to help brace the base and reduce stress on the poles.

这是我为登山环境设计的一个轻量化三脚架连接器，专门用来把三根登山杖快速组装成一个稳定的三脚架平台，顶部可以装摄影云台，适合户外拍照或者支撑一些轻设备。

顶部接口 底部是标准 1/4 英寸螺孔，需要自己装一个 1/4 螺丝，再套一个 1/4 转 3/8 的转接环，就能装上常见的云台了。

登山杖接口 有三个孔，直径都是 12mm，适配大多数登山杖。我建议再用根细绳（比如 0.8mm 的散绳或高分子绳）把三根杖之间拉一下，会更稳。

打印参数 我用的是 PLA-CF 材料，0.4mm喷嘴壁厚 4 层，填充 30%，目前测试承重10kg+，足够架设一般相机。

额外配件 两个必要的小零件：一个钩子，一个束绳器（其实就是三眼风绳扣），可以配合绳子用，绑在登山杖手带上加固底部防止登山杖断裂。
