Step 10: The camera mounting screw

The camera is held in position with a  2” long ¼” 20 TPI bolt combined with a bottle cap, 3 nuts and 2 locking washers. You will need to have one locking washer under the head of the screw and one under the opposing nut and do it up tight to make sure the cap does not free wheel. 
You could just use a short screw to mount the camera and tighten it with a screw driver but it is much easier to mount and unmount the camera with my bottle cap kludge.
