ISO Threaded Camera Tripod Ball Joint

### ISO Threaded Camera Tripod Ball Joint Are you one of those misfortunate souls who bought a camera phone tripod and the plastic just could not hack it, when it finally failed on the threads? I sure was! And that was my only tripod. Seeing as I had just bought a 3D printer, I was determined to fix the problem. I quickly ran to TinkerCAD, pulled out my digital measuring tool thingy and got to work! After I printed it using my Ender 3 V2, I was shocked to find that it actually worked! It can carry my Sony camera (non-dslr before people get excited!) or my weighty phone. This ball joined is an ISO metric ball joint (*1/4-20 UNC* to be exact) with the ball diameter measuring up to *12.25mm*. Hopefully if you are like me and was cursed with this issue, this ball joint will be of use to you!
