How To Build a Bicycle Camera Mount under US$1,00

How To Build a Bicycle Camera Mount under US$1,00
In this Instructable I'll teach you how to build your own Bicycle Camera Sturdy Mount at a very low cost.

Here in Brazil it costs around R$2,00 converting to american dollars we should have something around US$1,00.

First of all you'll need these items:

- 01 Screw with a diameter of 1/4" (If you're not safe about the size, please take your camera to the hardware store and try it by yourself to find the right size)
- 03 Wing nuts of 1/4"
- 01 EVA strip of 2 inches
- 01 Pipe Mount (See picture below)

With all those things in hand, follow the next steps.

Hey, I made this mod with no problem at all, thanks so much for the idea and guide! One little addition I made was to add a small 1/4" washer under my camera to help minimize the stress put on the tripod hole since my biking is pretty bumpy. I was afraid my camera was shaking so much that it would crack the bottom part off that fits into the bolt.
