Summary

I have 3 anti-vibration pucks (3" diameter) used under the legs of my Meade LX-90 Telescope's tripod. This is a bracket/holder that allows me to stack them on top of the spider arms of the tripod when they are not in use, carry them outside with the tripod/telescope, and then transfer them to under the legs.

As a bonus, a beer or other beverage can fits into the holder when the pucks are in use.

The STL file is sized for a 1/4-20 bolt or pan head screw (I used a 1" one with a matching 1/4-20 wingnut on the bottom) and three pucks that are 3" diameter and approximately 1" high. The specific pucks I use and recommend can be found here: https://amzn.to/4ggvAVv

You can easily adjust the size of the puck hole or screw holes by editing the parameters of the .SCAD file with OpenSCAD.
