Davide DB Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 We list here all the 3D printing projects for our toys that have been made or tested by our members. Given the huge amount of 3D printed projects on the net that often do not yield the desired results, we will add here only the working and tested projects.

Fabian Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Hi there, I've tested this one: https://www.printables.com/en/model/52403-diffuser-for-inon-z330-strobe It fits well, I just took the wrong material so it wasn't transparent enough... Best, Fabian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobyone Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 here are a few of my 3d projects. Port for 3 & 4 inch domes. Gears, protective dome covers and caps. The most interesting is the dome port for the Osmo pocket. The bottom of housing is a Chinese housing I purchased online. The 3 inch dome has a + 4 diopter for the Osmo pocket. Works with anamorphic adapter. Link to test video. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Architeuthis Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I have printed out the snoot for Inon Z330 (small version) according to this file here and it works perfect: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4753831 This file and numerous other files for UW-photography can be found on this Webside here, type in e.g. "Z330" or "Zoom gear", but I cannot confirm that everything works (I printed just the snoot): https://www.stlfinder.com/ Wolfgang 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Architeuthis Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Here is the link that Chris requested: Adapter for Nauticam focus gears for the Canon 8-15mm and the Tokina 10-17mm fisheyes for use on MFT with 1x glassless adapter (the Nauticam gears are build to work with the 0.71x speedbooster). While the regular versions work as they are, the versions for use with Kenko 1.4x TC may need some shortening by abrasion: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/dzjpn1s8wbfhbkyru8l4j/h?rlkey=u8ne953g3iymcyexmgczbmj9e&dl=0 Edited January 30 by Architeuthis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Hicks Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I have posted a Thingiverse project for the Hollis BOV 2nd stage regulator purge cover. Mine failed a few weeks ago so I made a replacement regulator part. Works great! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6460250 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had this unit for about 8 years, and dove the Sport KISS model starting in 2007. Most of my diving is CCR, and all of my local PNW diving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Hicks Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Nauticam Zoom Gear for Nikon 16-35mm lens I've posted a Thingiverse project for a Nikon 16-35mm zoom gear, for use with a Nauticam housing.

Dave_Hicks Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Nauticam Zoom Gear for Nikon 24-50mm Z lens Typically paired with the Nauticam WWL-C wet wide-angle lens. I've posted a Thingiverse project for a Nikon 24-50mm Z lens zoom gear, for use with a Nauticam housing. Tested in a Nauticam Z8 housing but should work for any similar Nauticam 120 port sized housing. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6460615 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that the gearwheel part of the Nikon zoomgear will fit also to Nauticam N100 housings for Sony FF? Does anyone know? If yes, it will be easy to use just the gearwheel part and put e.g. a cylinder structure on it via software (e.g. ThinkerCad) to fit the appropriate Sony FE lens...

Wolfgang I don't know if n100 gears are the same diameter as n120. But all the gears on a type are identical. The hard part is getting the cylinders to precisely hug the lens. I used a two part solution with a tpu rubber sleeve that the gear cylinder tightly slips onto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried printing a N120 focus ring for my houding once and they are larger in diameter than the N100 rings. They should however work in the N100 to N120 adapter with the knob.

I used a two part solution with a tpu rubber sleeve that the gear cylinder tightly slips onto. I use a one part solution with a split. It's easy to fit on the lens and can be tightened up to prevent any slippage in use by using the captive nut and screw. Here's a couple of examples; N120 for Sigma 150 macro on the left and N100 for Sony 90. macro on the right: Edited February 5 by Gudge 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire barrel of the lens telescopes, so multiple parts are needed. The gear has to float free and sit on top of a spacer. The gear needs to have slots that mate with pegs fixed to the collar tight on the lens. Pretty complicated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried a similar approach for this lens but couldn’t get it to fit in the narrower N100 port. my hacky solution was cutting off the screw part and adding a bunch of rubber bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gudge Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Here's a couple more N120 examples; Canon 8-15 on the left and Sigma 17-70 macro on the right. The 8-15 zoom gear has two tightening screws because it is reversible so I can use it for the 8-15 with and without teleconverter. The rubber ring on the 8-15 is narrow and one central tightening screw doesn't work well with either configuration. I use one screw when shooting th 8-15 by itself, and the other screw with the 8-15 pluse teleconverter when the zoom ring is fitted in reverse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assume you have to align the gear so it does not turn through the tightening flanges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gudge Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) 16 minutes ago, Dave_Hicks said: What are the vertical bolts for? Because it is reversible I had to make this in two parts. What you can't see in the picture is the barrel extending down past the gear a few mm. The gear is held onto a flange on the barrel by the vertical bolts. Quote Assume you have to align the gear so it does not turn through the tightening flanges? Not an issue with this design. The zoom collar on the lens only moves through about 90º, I just have to make sure that when the zoom gear is attached to the lens that the gap is opposite the gear in the housing to ensure the two will never meet.

Much more interesting and challenging to make one gear that covers both situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
