Manfrotto 200 Quick Release Plate Belt Holster

thingiverse

Made a belt holster for Manfrotto QR plate/shoes. Oversized belt loop space fits about any belt type. Keeps camera handy... I used PETG and printed it with the holster bottom against the bed (upright) so that the shoe keeper edges would be strong. Also, 4 shell layers with my .5 nozzle makes the belt loops solid and strong. Added file ManfrottoQR_BeltHolster with narrower belt loops. Added open pants clip style holster in 2 parts, attempting to maximize strength where needed. Lightly scrub off the keyed mating surfaces and corners with a file so external surfaces fit together flush (some glue gaps is good as long as it fits nice and snug). The pictures for this one are a test print in copper PLA that I would not recommend or consider being up to the task of a camera holster. That copper is weird sort of cool and just what I had loaded to prove proper working stl file. Please use a good filament and be confident in your print ;) Your printer and material might need a slight scale up or down to achieve optimal print and therefor strength for long term use without worry of failure.
