Description

Want to run a wiimote whiteboard as seen in Johnny Lee's videos? Print this handy adapter to mount your wiimote snugly to a tripod without damage, modification or sticky tapes!

This comes in two versions.
The nut-less version requires no extra parts and 3 easy minutes to cut threads in the plastic. The other requires only one 1/4x20 nut found at any hardware store. Press it in and you're done.

Instructions

1. Download pre-centered .stl file
2. Skeinforge to your liking (or use my .gcode as a last resort as it\'s tuned to my machine)
3. Print

If using the nut-less version
1. Find/buy a 1/4 inch x 20 rod or bolt. You probably have one in your garage.
2. File a notch out of the end of the threads as seen in the pictures. This is easiest if you clamp the bolt/rod securely.
3. Slowly turn it through the printed hole which may require cleanup with a drill beforehand.
