Elgato Key Light Air quarter inch tripod adapter
An adapter that lets an Elgato Key Light Air sit on any camera tripod or light stand instead of its own weighted desk base. The Key Light Air panel attaches to its pole with a 1/4 inch-20 stud on a ball joint, so the adapter is a 40 mm tall, 30 mm diameter cylinder with a 1/4 inch-20 female thread on the bottom to take a tripod head, and a 1/4 inch-20 through-hole on top with a 12 mm hex pocket for a nut so the light's ball joint bolts on. A 6 mm hex-shaped waist gives a spanner grip. Print it upright with the female thread down, and add a brass insert if preferred.

Example prompt
Design a cylindrical thread adapter 30 mm diameter and 40 mm tall for an Elgato Key Light Air with a 1/4 inch-20 female thread 12 mm deep in the base, a 1/4 inch-20 through hole with a 12 mm hex nut pocket on top, and a 6 mm deep hexagonal waist for a spanner.
Fit notes
A thread adapter measured to your stand beats guessing whether a downloaded one is 1/4 or 3/8 inch. In SpeakCAD you describe both ends, preview the adapter in the browser, switch it to 3/8 inch-16 or a 5/8 inch spigot for a Key Light in the chat, and download the STL.

Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.
No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
