Better cold (hot) shoe mount for speedlight tripod head

prusaprinters

<p>Cheap speedlights tripods heads have those metal hot shoe mounts. I really don't like them, so I replaced them with my own.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>// Printing info</strong></p><ul><li>use PETG to ensure, that adapters are strong enugh</li><li>print “Cold shoe” standing on it's back - no supports needed</li><li>print “adapter_plate” on biggest flat surfece - add supports in nuts holes (you don't need them in screw holes)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>// Assembly&nbsp;</strong></p><p>Assemble them using two flat(!) M3x10mm screws (you can use a bit logner - there's free space underneath) and M3 nuts.&nbsp;</p><p>Mount them in place of oryginal one and you're ready to shoot!&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>// Sizes</strong></p><p>There're two versions, because in my tripod heads there're differnet distances between mounting screews (see attached drawings and file names). Outer dimensions are the same.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>// Other info</strong></p><p>Adapter plates are designed to use oryginal mounting screws - they work with M3 and with Φ3 screws for plastic.&nbsp;</p><p>I've tessted them with Yongnuo speedlights made for Nikon.&nbsp;</p><p>Cold shoe comes from this model: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5394720">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5394720</a></p>
