The Pentax M series bodies are a great affordable entry into the analog SLR market. With access to great affordable K mount lenses and packed with more features than the now pricier K-1000. The only problem for me is their small size. While a feature that helped them compete with the Olympus OM series this has proved a major downside for me. I struggle to get a comfortable grip on my MV-1.
With that in mind I decided to make a grip for the camera that would be lighter and cheaper than just buying the motor winder. Half an hour tinkering with Solidworks and I came up with this.
It mounts using a ¼"-20 tripod screw. Mine is 14.5mm total length with 5mm of threads. These are available on amazon.
I printed mine on a Prusa Mini+ with a 0.4mm Nozzle at 0.2mm layer height.

Does not fit on the MX as the body is shorter. Therefore the grip interferes with the strap lug.
