This stand is designed to securely hold a phone on top of a microscope in order to get a picture of the image that the microscope is portraying. The three rings are created to perfectly fit according to the measurements of the microscope head. The size might vary depending on the brand.
In order to create the stand, the first thing that needed to be done was to measure the circumference of the head of the microscope. From these measurements, the three rings can be made (identically). The rings can be glued to any piece of wood that would fit the entire phone with even distribution of weight.
At the center of the three rings, drill a hole big enough to see the entire glass image from the microscope.
All of the wood can be put together with wood glue. Tip: when gluing the rings on top of each other, place them on the microscope head and let them dry together around the head. This will make them flush and the correct size.
Below is an example of the clarity:
