Wall mounted "pedestal hands" to hold and show small things. The upper hand can illuminate the lower hand's platform with a kitronik usb lamp.
I mounted mine onto s cheap wooden picture frame in order to show my very first more or less successful 3d print i still had stowed away in a box. Added some printed schematics as a background ( should have scaled them down a little for better visibility) .
There are 6 parts to be printed. Only the top hand should need support - I manually added some support structures to hand_top_supported.stl for better results ( may still need additional support generated by your slicing software). 15% infill should be enough. You'll need 2 M2.5x15 screws to join the top hand with the usb lamp and the lid. Cut a M2.5 thread into the mounting holes - or just carefully screw the M2.5x15 screws right into the plastic. Four more screws are needed to attach the hands to whatever you want to attach them to. See the assembly guide picture for more details.
