They are hard to print/make because:

They are too big (expensive, prone to errors, take too much time to make)
The fittings need too much precision
It takes too long to glue them together

How can we improve:

Can we make big bases with small parts?
Make fittings larger and more robust
Use threaded inserts to screw bases parts together

A mixed technique solution like this would me nice. 3D printed fitting edges with mdf, plexiglass... they would be a lot cheaper and sturdier

I don’t think a cardboard solution would work, but maybe with a good design it even could get rugged enough
