Description
This GoPro mount fits to my eco system of lockable ball joints, which can be found here:
https://www.printables.com/model/370429-generic-lockable-ball-joint
Take the ball pan and the union nut from the 18mm eco system folder, to assemble with this GoPro mount.
Printing is fairly unproblematic, if you use a brim and print the parts in the uploaded orientation. No supports are needed. The brim can be cleanly removed with a hoppy knife after printing. I do recommend PETG over PLA, as it is less bridle and less like to break under heavy stress.
You need the mount and the ball from this publication. In addition you need a M5 nut and a GoPro screw of course. The nut fits pretty well into the mount, but you may want to secure it with a tiny bit of glue to avoid losing, it when no camera is mounted.
Print one of the union nuts from the 18mm ball joint eco system, stick the threaded rod of the mounting part through the union nut, then attach the ball on the thread and screw it tight. You are ready to use everything on the 18mm ball pan from the eco system.
The thread on the GoPro mount is a regular metric M10 thread, which is designed to fit to standard DIN/ISO M10 nuts when printed. Feel free to use this part in any M10 based assembly you can think of.
Your satisfaction is my reward. Please give this part a like or publish a photo of your print if you like it. Happy printing!
It is your responsibility to take good care for your camera, or whatever you mount to this part. I will not be to blame if you damage or loose your equipment.
