<p>I purchased this lens [Olympus 35-100mm F2 ED for Four Thirds (and it is no longer in production, was very expensive when it was originally sold,) and it was missing the tripod collar, so I made one to replace it. There are four parts that need to be printed, first the tripod nut holder, as it 'holds' the 1/4-20 hex nut that is placed inside the tripod lens adapter when it is printed, depending on your slicer at 17.4mm heights.</p> <p>The metal parts required are:</p> <ol> <li><p>1/4-20 Hex Nut</p> </li> <li><p>1/4-20 Hex Coupler -7/8" long (~22.4mm)</p> </li> <li><p>6mm Cross Dowels Slotted Barrel Nuts - 20mm long</p> </li> <li><p>6mm Hex Head Bolt x 70mm</p> </li> <li><p>1/4-20 Hex Bolt x 1"</p> </li> </ol> <p>Some additional printing notes.</p> <ol> <li><p>Using PrusaSlicer, you can put in additional shapes to strengthen various parts of the print and stop supports from printing at various locations. There is a locator notch and hole on the tripod lens adapter that I didn't want supports, the rest of the ring portion needs supports, so block off the top of the print and it will look nicer</p> </li> <li><p>Internal strengthening was added to the tripod lens adapter at the adjustment hole and the attachment point for the long hex bolt, which I made solid.</p> </li> </ol> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>i3 MK2.5</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>Yes</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>200um</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>40</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Generic PETG Black</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>There are internal parts that have to be put in place during the print.
