... it has to be, I made it. LOL. All jokes aside, here is my first try at a scope cam mount prototype. I admit, I did a lousy job, ha ha. Just wanted to see if the concept would work, or not. Believe it or not, it does. I am uploading a video, taken with my "mount", as we speak. Once uploaded, I will post the link.
Parts used:
Black rubber "pipe" (not sure what to call it), bought at Home Depot: $3.99
90 degree white PVC pipe, cut "in half": $0.99
"Plate" made using a PVC tile: I forgot. Maybe $1.99?
Total: +/- $6 bucks.
Building it took me 20 minutes or so. You need to do nothing to the rubber "coupling". The white PVC pipe has to be cut in a way to create a flush surface for the "plate". As you can see, it is not flush at all. I was doing in on the dinning room table using a little bench vice and a multi tool. The "plate" is made of a PVC tile. I cut the tile in half and put both sticky side together. I then cut it to "specifications". I was to lazy to find my large "hole maker" so I made the hole using a smaller drill. Obviously.
Here is the video: The quality is going to better once YouTube is done processing it. At some point you can see that when I zoom in the scope, that the phone's lens is not centered, so I have to recenter it...
