    Pali makes 3d-printed cameras, including focusing helicals.

    I saw his stuff. Hopefully my simple lens flange look 1/10 as good as his stuffed

    Had it printed. Feels super strong and lens fits. Best 20$ I’ve spent in photo gear in a long time. ��

    Looks very good!

    The screw in lens flanges are grossly over-dimensioned.

    I realized when it printed that it could probably hold a 40 pound lens ��. Thank god it’s going on a 9x9” lens board

    Finished product... well not really. The 3D printed part is actually hollow with a honeycomb like structure inside to save both weight and materials. Next time I would have it printed solid. I also have it mounted to some MDF just so I can play around and finally see what my Francais casket set looks like with all of the combinations of front and rear elements. I am definitely going to bring it to my machinist and use it for a sample of what I am looking for, but for a few hours CAD design and $20 to print it was worth it.
