Atobit 20 Posted January 18, 2015 I made a mockup of a tripod legs attachment for my Nauticam NA-A7 housing. I was looking for something simple and compact. For now I printed the parts, will send them for machining shortly. I use an updated handle L plate as support for the front legs. I found cheap Inon style strobe ball mount. For the back leg, I use the tripod mound a attachment and one of the feature use during the body machining as anti-return point. To simply the part, a bushing is press-fitted on the plate. While the X404 legs seems to be the best, for a try I found cheap legs too. I more than welcome feedback and idea for improvement. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bubffm 178 Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Looks great, I am actually looking for something similar for my compact camera system (RX100m4) and having spent a bit of time researching I don't find anything convincing to buy "out-of-the-box" so I might just try and adapt this idea for use with the Nauticam Flexitray if you don't mind. Just need to trace someone nearby doing the tooling at reasonable cost.... Edited September 26, 2015 by bubffm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dreifish 298 Posted October 14, 2015 This looks great, Atobit! Are you willing to share the design files from which you printed the parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atobit 20 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Sure! Here a zip file that content the 3D step files and a PDF. Feel free for question. http://atobit.com/?wpdmdl=1809 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Edited October 18, 2015 by Atobit 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rycks2 1 Posted March 12, 2018 Hello Lionfish, could you please provide an other download link please ? this one (http://atobit.com/?wpdmdl=1809) seems to be broken ... Thanks a lot Éric Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Kay 31 Posted March 15, 2018 You might also try www.thorlabs.com who produce opto-mechanical parts which can be used to build stuff - using 1/4" x 20tpi which fits tripod threads, or M6 - some of their parts could be used if you like mechano! I use them for all sorts of things - they manufacture in stainless steel and anodised aluminium. As an example: https://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=223 Not cheap but probably cheaper than getting stuff machined unless you diy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
