iPhone 6 Tripod & Gorillapod mount

thingiverse

This case comes equipped with two versatile mounting adapters that securely attach to regular 1/4-20 UNC tripod threads and JOBY gorillapod mounts, which I used for my trusty old iPhone 4s case. The advanced JOBY gorillapod mount was painstakingly laser-scanned using a FARO arm to achieve an absolute perfect fit. To facilitate easy modification, the different components are carefully separated. If your printer slicing software cannot handle printing them together as one unit, you may need to combine them initially within a 3D modeling program. I successfully tested this with Simplify3D, and it yielded exceptional results. Additionally, I have included another gorillapod mount (iphone6_case_GP1_v3.stl), which is supposedly newer on the market but I've yet to verify its compatibility. This model was derived from a similar build for the iPhone5. To begin printing, simply import the GP1 or GP2, CAM and CASE models into their respective original positions, then proceed with the print process. For optimal results, refrain from auto-positioning them, unless it's strictly necessary to align them with your printer bed. It's worth noting that you will need to procure a separate 1/4" to 3/8" metal thread adapter for the tripod mount, which I used in conjunction with my print case. For those interested in expanding their mounting options, you can combine both the tripod and gorillapod mounts as shown in my illustration to securely hold an external light or other accessory. **Tested Printing Settings** Material: HIP Layer Height: 0.2mm Fill Density: 100% Number of Shells: 2 Print the case, cam and one of GP1 or GP2 simultaneously. When attaching the metal thread adapter, carefully heat it with a soldering iron before screwing it into place. This technique melts the plastic, creating a secure bond.
