Universal Microscope and Binoculars Phone Adapter
Description
I printed cswaim's "Universal Microscope Phone Adapter" back in 2014 for use with a microscope. A couple weeks ago, I downloaded Terminal Eleven's SkyView app for my phone, and thought it would be great if I could use it *while* I was using the binocs. (Indeed, Terminal Eleven promotes a line of binoculars and telescopes with a built-in mounting bracket for your phone. But I've got fine binoculars, so.... I tried to clip the original Thing to them, but the clips were too big to fit between the barrels, and the bushing would have held the phone in portrait orientation. So I've done a tiny redesign of those three parts. It now works with a couple of different kinds of binoculars (clipping to the center hinge on larger binocs, and to the barrel on smaller ones), and still works with my microscope. I'm loathe to actually claim it's "Universal", but you *can* use it for looking at the night sky... I've attached the stl's (as well as the 3mf's if you want to mess with the bits I hacked in Microsoft's 3D Builder app). Enjoy!
