Tripod quick release plate

I'm thrilled to share with you this quick release plate that replaces the Sirui TY-C10.\n\nWhat I love about these plates is their slim, light design while still fitting the arca-swiss standard - they're ideal for my vintage 35mm film cameras. However, their high cost means owning one for each camera can be a significant investment... so I designed and printed my own to save some cash.\n\nFor those who want to save even more money, there's also a tripod screw included. But keep in mind: metal screws are made that way for a reason. If you print your own, make sure your settings prioritize layer adhesion over print speed; otherwise, your camera might break because you skimped on a real screw.\n\nDespite this, it works as a proof of concept and if you print it with polycarbonate in high temperatures, it could potentially withstand some real action with lightweight cameras. I'll update you on that front once I've conducted some tests.\n\nP.S.: The photo is from an earlier version of the plate. I still need to update the picture with the latest version which features more chamfered/blended edges and deeper grooves. It's also time for me to replace my old print bed as its surface finish looks really bad.
