Summary

I have a concept for a 3D-Printable Broom/Mop Stand accessory that clips onto a standard 1-inch broom or mop handle and allows the tool to stand upright on its own. The concept uses: • A removable clamp that attaches to the handle • A sliding sleeve with a push-button release • A stationary lower collar • Six folding legs • Umbrella-style linkage arms connecting the sleeve to the legs Operation: When the button is pressed, the sleeve slides down and forces the legs outward into a stable support position. When retracted, the sleeve moves back up, folding the legs flat against the handle and hiding them inside a shroud. Please advise on feasiblity and practically. Any suggestions for improvement are welcome. I have a rough sketch available.
