Summary

This is a removable camera mount bracket I created for my QuickSet Tripod model 5-95818-6B that was missing this piece. A camera can be mounted in various positions with the knobwheel and 1/4-20 bolt. The bracket then slides onto the tripod and locks into place.

Instructions

Print in accelerated mode with a raft and exterior support. You can probably print without the raft and support, but the result may be rougher. Also print the knobwheel without a raft. Vapor polish with acetone if desired (at your own risk). Insert the knobwheel from the bottom side of the bracket and drop in a 1/4-20 bolt (1-inch or 25mm length threaded portion, with 3/8-inch or 10mm hexhead as measured flat to flat). Place a drop of epoxy to secure the bolt in the knobwheel if desired. On the left side is a hole; insert a 6-32 rivet nut from the inside, and insert an appropriate 6-32 screw if desired to secure the bracket to the tripod. I found that unnecessary, as mine locks into place securely without the screw.
