360 GoPro Hero 4 Mount for 5 or 6 Cameras

thingiverse

This is a remix of "GoPro Hero 3 Black Mount for Multiple Cameras Inc. NEW 6x Cam Spherical Mount" by @dtLAB (thank you!) http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:52584 Updates include: A sturdy top cover is added to prevent cameras from falling out of the mount, secured with two #6-1/2" screws. Cutouts in the base are made to view the screen and access the power button on horizontal cameras, raising the pillars on top by a few mm for better camera positioning. The walls of the 6th GoPro mount are widened to 3mm, allowing easy access to buttons with added cutouts. An extension stem is attached using a soldering iron to heat up a 1/4-20 (M6) nut, then pushing it into each end without burning fingers. A 1/4-20 - 1" bolt secures the stem to the base for camera stability. This design was tested with GoPro Hero 4 cameras; results may vary with other camera models. How I Designed This Download .SCAD files uploaded by @dtLAB and follow these steps: Open .scad file in OpenSCAD, then export as .csg. Next, open the .csg file in FreeCAD and export as .igs. Finally, upload the .igs file to Fusion360 for modification and export as .stl. Updates New Top Cover Design is Introduced The top cover has been redesigned for a wider coverage area; it prints easier without structural complications. Is this aesthetically pleasing compared to the first version? Let me know!
