Slim Softmount

thingiverse

I'm trying to recreate a soft mount created by Nicecrash but with some additional changes so it can be screwed directly to the frame and have a slimmer camera holder profile. This design suits any frame with a hole pattern of 25mm x 36.6mm, including: XL5 V3 (on the photo), DC10 V2, XL V4, DC5, SL5, XL6 V3, XL7 V3, XL7 Lowrider V3, and XL8 V3. The V1 base can be used with a mount from Nicecrash as it has the same size of tube holders. The V2 is slimmer and suits better for my mount. I'm using tubes of the same size as in the original version, with 7x4 mm profile and about 13-14/18-19 cm length. The mount can be secured using 2.5x20 mm zip ties in two ways: passing it through the tube and locking it at the end (front tube on the photo) or using holes on the back side. I designed the base to print on longer sides without supports inside screw holes, see the screenshot for orientation of the part or the 3mf file with proposed support structures (only for V1). WIP! The mount design isn't final yet. I still haven't received ND filters from TBS as originally planned due to transportation issues. The current version fits cheap plastic ND filters with dimensions of 36x35x1.65 mm.
