magnetic quick release Go Pro / Garmin Virb to Ram Ball 1" ball mount size "B"

This quick release mount secures my in-car video camera, utilizing a RAM mount and GoPro Hero mount setup. I've opted to use a RAM bar mount here, but their suction cup mounts could also be employed. I rely on neodymium magnets to firmly join the two components together, resulting in an extremely solid assembly that even re-aligns itself upon re-attachment. Instructions: 1. Print both pieces; I chose not to drill out the holes as I threaded them with the GoPro retaining screw. 2. Super Glue the magnets to the base piece. 3. Align the upper part and secure it together using the magnets, then add a layer of Super Glue. 4. Apply Super Glue to the retaining nut. I've also designed a mobile phone mount that's magnetic for RAM mounts: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3090790
