Originally posted by MikeyBugs95 I have already added some anti-twist features to the design but none very specific. I need to get the camera 3D scanned to add more.
Great initiative with this project.
1. I agree with the body matched anti-twist features. I used to think 3d scanning would be necessary for getting an accurate representation of shapes with fine dimensions but actually resulting surfaces are likey coarse and might not give you better results than using a simple caliper. Alternatively you may be able to pull vector drawings of the camera from the pdf user manual (open in acad or ai) and scale them to 1:1 for accurate dims.
2. Another tip someone mentioned already, especially if you are printing in plastic which I imagine you are, it might be a good idea to use threaded inserts rather than relying on plastic threads (might not last much)
3. I would also consider dropping the hole where the bracket angles as it looks like it could be a weak point.
4. One last comment, you might need to beef up that area around the central (threaded) hole.
Btw I'm a product designer
