So! This grip is for and tested on minolta XD-s, it's recommended to print on some pa-cf, after printing you should cover it with a polyurethane spray since it's not a good idea to hold in your hands carbon fibers.
The grip is holded only by a "1/4-20 10mm screw", using the thread for the tripod, it's optimized for this specifical screw bought in aliexpress, if you can't find it, buy a similar one and check the dimensions on blender.
Since the tripod thread is being in use by the grip, there is a hole to put a heat brass insert to rehabilitate the tripod thread, for it you have to buy a "1/4-20UNC (OD8mm), Length 8mm" I also bought it in aliexpress.
Also, there is a concavity on the grip to fill with a leather, the nice way to do it is to use a laser cutter to cut the leather or print on paper, use a scapel to cut, glue it to leather and then cut it, both ways by the dimensions of the pdf attach (The dimensions are not exact, you should resize to 98%)
Hope this model help someone, my minolta has been easier to hold and take photos since then.
