I am needing a VESA tripod adapter, and I found one on thingiverse that might do the trick:

If I were to print this design, what material should I use? It will attach to a specialized tablet holder weighing about 3 lbs.
Unless the thing heats above 40°C, pretty much anything goes as long as you ensure the proper fill and perimeters.
If it does heat above 50°C, try PET, nylon or ABS.
PLA filament will work great for that adapter .
Hmmm... the layer orientation would make me worry about it splitting and dropping the monitor on the ground. I would probably modify this into a two part object, so I could rotate the block that attaches to the tripod rotate 90 degrees, and then glue it to base that attaches to the monitor.
