As I struggled yet again with my unpleasant GorillaPod tripod, I realized I had the perfect solution available to me: Create a bracket that I could slide onto my Valoi copy stand that would hold the camera in a horizontal position, using an Arca Swiss adapter.
I had made a similar bracket months back for holding the camera pointing down, so this was a simple modification to that design.
Printing
Print the part in a strong material such as PETG. The material must resist creep and cracking. You want to be able to leave your camera attached for long periods of time.
I have also included a longer version that I designed so that I can swing out the flippy display on my camera while it is mounted.
Avoid printing issues by ensuring the 3030 channel hole is vertical. Depending on how steep the angled part is, you might get away with printing the part right-side-up; I printed it upside-down.
If you print as I did (upside down), you will need to use supports on build plate only to fill in the inset platform that supports the Arca Swiss plate.
Parts and Assembly
The Arca Swiss baseplate clamp is available on Amazon for around 12 dollars. I bought two of them recently from different sellers, so you may need to search for “Aluminium 50mm Quick Release Plate QR Clamp Fits Arca-Swiss Standard”
Arca Swiss Quick Release Plate
You will also need some basic hardware. Check your junk drawer first, but here is a list of things that will work:
- 3030 Series M5 Sliding T Nuts
- 15mm M5 washers
- Adjustable Clamping Lever Handle, M5 x 10mm
- ¼"-20 screw, with a wide washer, to secure the Arca Swiss mount
You don't need to use the adjustable clamping lever handle, but it's handy. Just keep in mind that the screw should not exceed 10mm so it doesn't touch the rail when fully screwed in.
Make sure to use washers between the clamp and printed part, as well as between the ¼"-20 retaining screw and the part.
Modifying the Model
I have included the original FreeCAD model. Everything useful is parameterized in the spreadsheet. Enjoy!
