ARCHIVE Wits’ End- Something about mounting balls 🤔 (1 Viewer)

[NLXTACY]

This one took too long to get going but once things got going it just all came together.

These are accessory mounts for the 80Series A-Pillar grab handle Oh s*** Handle that fit under the handle and are made from aluminum and have a 1/4-20 steel insert. Now you have a secure spot to mount a GPS, mic, phone, camera, etc.

These are just prototypes but will be going into production soon. Hoping to get plenty of feedback to make sure I’m not missing something obvious.

I’m a good guesser.

What color are you planning, maybe neutral something to match the grab handle/A-pillar? Nice job.

That's pretty slick!

I wonder where else one of these might fit...besides my rear end...you know you were thinking it.

 

[OverLand Cruisers]

Nice! Good idea Joey

I want this soooo bad! I'm sick of suction cup failures.

Any chance for something similar to allow a mount for a dash camera behind the rearview mirror??

Joey,

What phone holder is that?

 

[smritte]

This is the spot my phone has been mounted for years. Mine is mounted using a longer screw and a motorcycle handle bar ball through the lower handle bolt.
Mine works well but it looks unfinished. This will actually move my mounting point back some, which is where I want it.
Good job, cant wait until its available.

 

[Dan2722]

Yes please!

What phone holder is that?

it’s not a phone holder technically. In my past life I did product development/sales/training for my old business in the film industry. The phone case has an Element Technica (my last business) v-lock glued onto it. It snaps into the ET V-Dock which is threaded onto the RED (complete bull**** company) Noga arm with a 1/4-20 thread. Industry standard stuff.

basically it’s unobtanium
