DIY: Custom Camera Mount for Boat

[MadisonBoats]

Well, I got tired of lugging a tri-pod around in my boat for filming and taking pictures. So; I modified some scrap parts an made a camera mount for my boat. My only worry is that it may be sensitive to boat vibrations. I may have to add a damper or gyro to help it stay even keeled.


I bought the flex-support & mount at Radioshack for a couple of $$. Taped and threaded the inside of the support. Threaded and added a short piece of rod that would mount in to an old tripod base. It can easily be removed by just unscrewing from the mount base. Also; you can buy extra mounts at Radioshack for super cheap to have multiple mounting locations.

Thought I would share...
