Hey everyone! I wanted to share something I've been working on alongside my career as an Assistant Camera.

I'm a professional AC and, like many of you, I've always been obsessed with organization and problem-solving on set. A few years ago I started combining that obsession with 3D printing, and it slowly turned into something bigger than I expected.

I've just launched my Cults3D profile — 3D-CamTools — where I publish pro-grade 3D printed accessories designed specifically for the Camera Department.

Every model is field-tested on real productions with ARRI, RED, Tilta, Teradek and more. Some are free, others are available at a very accessible price.

If you're tired of zip-tying things together or spending a fortune on accessories for niche problems — this might save you some headaches on your next shoot.

Hello, here are two little accessories I made at the request of some friends.

• Focus Marks for Arri / Preston rings (Works on the Hi5 with WCU-4 rings, who has a lip, as shown on the picture below)

  

• BNC Color Rings to help identifying SDI cables for complex video configuration. They actually fit well and don't prevent to turn the cable to remove it (I was perplex with my first print but tested it afterwards)

EDIT : I added a focus mark holder to tape on your monitor or to keep in your front box

Mr. Masaki Hirahara, AKA "Mott" reported a couple of my designs on Printables, and they got deleted without the admins even asking about it. Apparently they don't adhere to the law about these things, they just delete if someone asks them to delete and give undue protections to the "original designer". I decided to share them here at least for now. Also attached are the notifications and side by side

images confirming they are different models.

I only looked at pictures, and decided to make something similar. I did not have access to his 3D models or printed objects. So they're not his designs, since that would require patents. With regards to the V-mount sticker base, I had already had a vague idea about it before even seeing Mott's model on his store, since it's a really simple idea. He doesn't share or sell his models, he only sells finished…

I’ve been working on some parametric filter tags and lens case labels,

All settings are adjustable In Makerworld so you don’t have to design your own. You don't need to use a bambu printer or slicer for this to work. You can add color with the paint by layer height function in any slicer as well when you slice it. Free to all! Maybe just boost my design in makerworld if you like it!

There is a Fusion 360 Parametric File in links as well

No more need to create or modify a design for new tags and easy to run batches
