Description

PDF

This is an articulated butterfly stand that can hold your phone, photo frames, or other items. The wings are on ball-and-socket joints that allow considerable motion for getting the right amount of spread to support a phone or other item. This could also double as a nice decoration piece. 

The model requires no supports. To assemble, pop the balls on the wings into the sockets on the body. Best printed at .15mm or better. If you want a more colorful butterfly, switch materials for the upper layers, making the patterns your desired color. This can be scaled up to hold bigger items. 

This is the 3rd in my endangered species models. Butterfly and other pollinator populations are on the decline. Consider making a butterfly garden on your property or getting more involved in helping them thrive. More information here: https://www.xerces.org/endangered-species/butterflies
