Cold Shoe

thingiverse

This is a custom creation based on the Sabot flash cold shoe design. To make it work with standard 1/4-20 nuts, I had to enlarge the slot to accommodate them properly. Additionally, I reduced the base by approximately 1.5 mm so that it would fit seamlessly into my Stroboframe's anti-twist plate. As an experiment, I combined parts one and two of the original design to eliminate the need for glue, which proved successful. The third part, a snug-fitting plug for the nut, doesn't require gluing, although you can choose to do so if desired. I printed this design in both PLA and carbon fiber materials and achieved excellent results with both, but I personally prefer the appearance and feel of the carbon fiber finish.
