Manfrotto Fluid Video Head with half ball to flat adapter

thingiverse

Here's an adapter for a Manfrotto 502 fluid video head with 75mm half ball to mount it on a flat surface. The tripod head comes with a long screw when you unscrew the bottom part. This screw come to the center of the printed part and is fixed in place with a M10 nut on the bottom of the part ( there's a hex hole for it). You'll have a 5-10 mm margin on the screw on the bottom, enough to attach it on a tripod, or a travelling rail. Tip : To put the bottom nut, you just have to force it in a little bit, so there will be no play. You can aslo heat the nut before placing it in the hole to melt the PLA a little bit, so that it can go in more easily.
