AZEL Tripod Mount & motor bracket
thingiverse
This is an addition to "https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4664558/files", the wonderful AZ/EL rotator by jbyrns. I added to the tracker a custom adaptor for the tripod I plan to use. It has a 'quick release' so I modelled the bottom to 1) interface to the mechanism of the rotator and 2) adapt to a tripod or quick release commonly used in tripods. I used four M4x8x6mm brass inserts which I epoxied into the rotator mechanism, with associated M4 screws. That mounts this adaptor to the rotator. One 1/4-20 brass insert is used to connect this to the tripod. Four M3 x 4 x 5mm inserts and M3 screws are used to tie the box together. I used a soldering iron to heat the inserts and melt them into the plastic for all the M3 screws. PLA was used for printing, but other materials can be used also. I also printed a simple bracket to support one of the servo motors, as I found this easier when assembling the rotator.
