Making a Replacement Tripod Part

Sometime last year I bought a nice tripod at a garage sale. The tripod was missing the piece that attaches a camera and the tripod together. For my Thing-A-Day project I wanted to make a pattern for a replacement part. My project today is making this pattern.

Brilliant! I wish I'd thought of it! I admire a bit of 'out of box' thinking...and now I can make use of that tripod I bought (in similar circumstances) with the same problem! Thank you!!

Thank you! Same problem here. The one, really steady tripod, I have is missing the mounting piece. I've searched for the part, can't find it, but never actually thought to build my own...I'm eager to see how your part comes out. I hope it works.
