Quick release plate for SLIK U6600 tripod

thingiverse

I use a StrapBuddy camera strap attachment for my DSLR, but it's a real hassle when I want to use my tripod. To solve this problem, I designed and built a replacement quick release plate for my tripod that allows the StrapBuddy and tripod plate to be connected to the camera at the same time. All you need to attach is a 1/4-20 screw with a washer - I used one that's 3/4 inches long. The print settings are as follows: Printer Brand: RepRap Printer: Prusa i3 Rafts: Yes, which helped me overcome issues with bed adhesion. Supports: Yes, to ensure the piece would be stable during printing. Resolution: .1mm for crisp and detailed prints. Infill: 60% for a good balance between weight and print time. I designed this piece to minimize supports by orienting it upside down on the bed. This also ensured that the layers wouldn't pull in the same direction as the force I'd be applying.
