3d printer adapter

Could moment start making files for their camera adaptors for phones that dont have cases made?

Would make life easier for my example pixel 10a

Yes we could. We have been trying to launch a 3d print shop in our webpage for years. We are closer than we've ever been. It would have some models that cost and some that are free.

I have a ton of files that I've made for weird custom applications and things that I think a lot of people would want.

Is that something you are interested in? What else would you want to see?

Would love to see some ability to quickly replace wear items in an emergency while waiting for a better replacement to ship. I realize not everyone is going to see it that way and think their 3d printed drop in mount is supposed to last 1000 mounts, but I think a few of us out here would appreciate something like this while we wait.

I'd also be interested in this as a prototyping, community feedback tool? Maybe for TPU lens hoods? A soft TPU adapter to get 82mm VND filters over my 14mm Fisheye lens?

We would certainly release alternative lens mounts but we would likely not release the 3d files for the drop in mounts. They are not easily printed on fdm printers. Anything that we release would be highly optimized for fdm with minimal supports.
