Place round knobs (11) on the ends of the all-thread to secure the ½” tube inside the base.
Yoke Assembly
Design the 3 yokes using Autodesk Inventor
3D print the yokes and remove from the tray using a paint scraper when finished
Attach the tripod adapter (2) to the tube cap (3)
Secure into place using a nut (4) and screw (5)
Slide the 3D printed endcap over the end of the 1” diameter tube
