This butterfly stand works great for small pots but can be scaled in your slicer for larger pots and 3D printers! This default size works great for most pots up to 7".
Use a few drops of super glue when installing the legs for added strength.
Printing Tips:
Use Infill of 20% gyroid. Will take longer to print but a sturdier base.
Print legs flat (so they look like S's) on the build plate.
Print just ONE leg, and test fit before printing the other 3. I left some tolerance in there but if its too loose, increase your horizontal expansion setting in your slicer or add .05 size adjustments to the X/Y/Z scaling in the slicer. Once you have a leg that is tight, but easy to insert you're good to go. They fit rather well as-is, adjust only if necessary.
