Darkslide holder for Hasselblad A12 filmback

thingiverse

This is a custom holder designed specifically for A12 film holders that adhere securely using various types of adhesive such as glue, tape or velcro. The unique design allows it to fit snugly over the existing end tab holder on the back of the film box. To ensure a clean print and keep the channel for the darkslide clear and well-defined, I printed this piece on-edge (view images for print orientation). v3 files Changelog: Updated 2/28/15 - • A small "ramp" feature was added to help guide the darkslide into its slot more smoothly. • Cutouts were made underneath to accommodate 1/4"W x 1/10"T Adhesive Strips. I used Command Adhesive Strips in my design, hoping for easy removability without causing significant damage to the leatherette material. • The rounded edge from the film tab window was removed due to printing issues with thin sections of the round shape having limited support on one edge during the print process. Design Process: I created this custom holder using Adobe Illustrator and 123D Design.
