Step 10Step 10: Attaching the mount
Just run the support bolt through the center hole in your book ripper secure with another nut. If you put washers between the nut and the plexi on both sides, it will help make for a more secure grip.
Just tighten these connections and you should be ready to go.
To use the stabilizing bolt simply move the bottom nut up or down until the camera's picture is level. It helps to have a book or a sheet of graph paper in the camera's sights for this. Since the bolt doesn't actually clamp onto the plastic, it can only really help level in one direction, by pushing against the plastic when the mending plate wants to lean too far to the left. That's not a problem because, with this particular arrangement of bolts and the camera, that is exactly how the camera does lean.
If you find that your combination of camera and materials causes the camera to lean away from the stabilizing bolt, try putting the tripod screw through different holes or using a longer mending plate. You could also consider putting a second hole in the book ripper and then running both bolts through the plastic, which would give you much better control.
That's it!
