GoPro Selfie handle

Description

SummaryMy friend got the GoPro 3-way and I thought I could just have some fun and design a similar one. First design looks good but I still need to add bolt holders and resize the joints. Also after the print it seemed a bit flimsy so I will make the walls a bit thicker. Hope it turns out great once I'm done. Update V2 I re made the whole thing from scratch and it turned out better, still have some little things to tweak but this V2 works already. I decided to get rid of the screw base and went for a simpler approach for now, I will probably add the mini tripod later. I unfortunately broke it while testing the strength of the joints so pictures don't show me holding it, but it felt solid. The handle has two holes as the higher one is the one that works directly with the GoPro housings. I will probably redesign it again from scratch with a more streamline design. Hope you guys like this version.InstructionsAugust 6, 2014 Re-disign looks good, printable and works great. Probably use good infill for rigidity and I suggest supports. It uses the same nut and bolt size as the regular go pro but you will need longer ones for two joints as they are thicker to accommodate the sturdiness of the modular handle. August 2, 2014 - Well, Do not print yet unless you want to make custom housing for the GoPro as I didn't make sure of the size of the outer diameter of the end joints. They all snap together just fine, just don't fit any GoPro accessories, so I have to resize a little. I am glad that everything snapped and worked but the designs still need some work. they are a bit messy and not optimized. Feel free to mod them if you want, or hopefully you do a better design. I will post the updates when I have a chance to fix them, also will make the walls a bit thicker as they are a bit flimsy at the moment.
