GoPro 130mm Straight Extension

I needed to mount my Akasa Action Sport Camera above and beyond my underseat bag so that the Power Bank battery could be placed in the rear pouch of the bag and a short USB cable could be run from the battery to the camera. So I designed this simple 130 mm extension that connects GestoPlastico's (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2598431) seat rail clamp to the camera mounting hardware. The extension rests on the bag for added support.

I needed to come up with a retainer for the general purpose open camera mount provided with my camera to prevent the camera from falling out on rough roads. I've dropped a camera twice before, lost a camera the second time! The solution I came up with slides over the raised brass insert housing on the bottom of the mount, and is secured with a M6 bolt. I went with a nylon 1/4-20 x 1/2" bolt (couldn't find one shorter locally) and two thick nylon washers as spacers. (The longer than needed bolt may come in handy should I decide to add a feature to the mount later on.)

The best orientation in the slicer is for the bottom of the retainer to be placed on the bed. In Cura I suggest using Tree Support. A brim or raft is also recommended.
