iPhone 6 PLUS Spotter / Scope / Binocular Mount

thingiverse

Update\nNow revised, test fitted and printed onto my 6plus.\nRequires rotating prior to printing (one day I'll figure out how to rotate the .stl) and the eyepiece demands support - see my photo for a functioning method.Screen images are simulated, it's nighttime and I didn't feel like pointing my rifle out the window to get a scope picture :) \nI apologize for anyone who downloaded the original model only to find that the fit was less than ideal. \nIf you need an eyepiece of a different diameter - leave a comment and I'll upload one that fits based on the outside diameter you provideDescription\nI wanted a way to use my iPhone's camera to look through my spotter scope so I wouldn't have to move once taking my shot at the paper target. The design was inspired by whiteboardwarriors2's creation for an iPhone 4s. It could also be mounted directly onto a telescopic rifle scope; however, unless it's an air rifle or .22 rimfire, I wouldn't recommend it due to recoil. \nThe case portion was designed to accommodate a thin (1.2mm extra) case all the way around. However, it should hold a phone without a case at about the same level as the genuine cases do not wrap around the bottom.\nAlso, there's an opening for a charger in case your battery starts getting low. \n\n \n \n Instructions\nPrint one of the cases on its back and an eyepiece to match the outside diameter of your scope's eyepiece then push together to assemble with a glob of your preferred adhesive. There is some extra room inside the cup so handle it carefully, but feel free to apply plastidip like whiteboardwarriors2 did on theirs i remixed from. That was a great idea. \nThere's a small notch at the back of the eye-cup that will help you locate the cup onto the case for 55mm cups and above. In some cases - adhesion may not be necessary. Also, this design adheres to Apple's recommended "keep-out" zone for the field of view on the lens; taken from their official diagrams.
