Tripod Quick Release Plate

thingiverse

This is for my DOLICA AX620 B100 camera tripod. At 40 X 40 mm it was a little loose so I added a millimeter to the length and width. One end is contoured to fit the clamp. It only fits one way - contour to the clamp. (If it's loose, turn it so the contour is towards the clamp at the back of the camera.) It needs a 1/4-20 x 1/2" screw to secure it to a camera tripod mount. I got a nylon screw and cut it to fit. I designed it in an older version of TurboCAD and printed it on an XYZprinting DaVinci 1.0. It will grip the camera better with a piece of sheet rubber (from an old inner tube) or cork glued to it. I printed a pad of TPU 95 Shore and included the file here. Without the pad, you will need to use a washer or cut the screw down a little shorter. Note: A special tool is required for installation (you can find it almost anywhere for around 25 cents).
