Holga Sunny Aperture Replacement Arm and Custom Bokeh

myminifactory

What's next for the "sunny" switch on a Holga? It just got a whole lot better! Inspired by scherbi's "Holga Repair and Aperture Modification" instructable, this is a replacement aperture arm for the sunny/cloudy switch on the Holga. Follow the instructable to step 6, then swap out the original arm with your freshly printed part. To make the part, print the base and crown files for your chosen version, and glue them together back-to-back. You've got three options: 1. The blank version is for you to drill the hole yourself, which is probably the cleanest and most accurate approach. 2. The Sunny version features a simple round hole, about 1/8 inch in diameter. This leaves some room to smooth out the edge of your hole for a precise 1/8 inch fit. I wanted to create a Sunny 16 option, but it's unclear if this really rates as f/16. 3. The Heart Shaped Bokeh is an untested experiment – have fun! I've included the original FreeCAD file so you can remix and add your own bokeh shapes!
