Description
Designed to screw on top of a railing post to facilitate the mounting of heliochronometer sundials. Uses ¼"-20 screws which is the most common size for cameras & tripods. Plate attaches to the bottom of a heliochronometer circular mounting base (see reference). Also includes a spacer. For extra sundial adjustment flexibility, use a Nylock nut with screw & washer to attach a levelling base like this one: Head Leveling Base by Axiongr | Download free STL model | Printables.com, or use a commercial tripod ball head.
Refer to photos for installation example.
