I once saw a concept render of a stand similar to this one, it just happened to not be symmetrical, hence it had a clearly defined base an orientation of use, that design stuck in my head as a challenge to create a fully symmetrical version, so after a few days of trying different cad programs I ended up with this design. It works as intended for my purposes and its fully symmetrical, which means you just have to plant it upright without looking for which side is the base. My brain can rest for now. :) I hope someone else out there finds some use for it.
