I have a possibly niche usecase where I want to keep my quick release puck attached but occasionally need to put my camera on my overhead mount. 

I would recommend using stronger materials and settings and ensure you have good layer adhesion as the strain relief can only go so far, especially if you are doing more than just suspending it straight down.

The fit is intentionally tight so you can change the angle without worrying about slipping. If yours fits loose, consider scaling it up just a tiny bit. As with all printed threads interacting with metal threads, take care to not over-tighten to avoid deforming the thread.

Example printed at 100% rectilinear infill with 3 side walls in SUNLU PLA. Supports my Canon EOS R100 and my 18-45mm lens horizontally without noticeable deformation. Note that your camera's hot shoe is not designed to hold excessive weight so don't take my setup as necessarily being safe for your gear.
