Quest 2 DAS Adapter Easy on/off rotating Frankenquest

thingiverse

Made this because all the DAS to Quest 2 adapters I found are fixed and since the Quest 2 strap arms are so stiff cannot easily put on or take off the headset without loosening the back knob. I decided to make an adapter that allows the DAS to work more like it does with the Vive headsets and rotate. This way you can put on the front of the headset and just slide the back of the DAS down settling onto your head without loosening the knob. The DAS just snaps onto the posts onto the adapter so it can rotate on the posts similar to the Vive headsets. There is a possibility for the DAS to pop loose from the post accidentally if you grab the headset by just one of the side straps, but I find that unlikely to happen as I always grab the headset from the top and/or back of the DAS strap. And even if it does the top strap will still hold and can just pop the DAS back on the post. *** After removing the supports from the Quest attaching side, you will need to use a hot hair dryer on the side you removed the supports making it pliable before attaching to Quest 2 strap arms. Needs to be very warm to make it bend the same way the arms are. About 35-60 seconds with my hair dryer on hot. Don't apply heat to the side with the post because it could deform the post...only heat the side that attaches to the Quest. *** Ver 1 is early one without outer ring surrounding the attachment part. Version 2 and 3 are much better with the outer ring. I angled Version 3 to more closely match how the front of the DAS is wider than the quest attachment arms but both Version 2 and 3 seem to work quite well.
