I hate tripods.

The design is based on a balanced arm lamp I have in my office. This prototype is at a point where I'm going to use it for a while before making adjustments to the model, but it's doing great for a proof of concept.

Originally I was using all four, but after working with it a bit and changing the springs orientations I found it worked well with just the one set. I've left the other two in case I change my mind :)

Now you've got me thinking of some sort of quick release system for switching these in case I do want the lean direction to change..... That would be super useful.
