Description
Ever pull apart your housing only to destroy your bezel whilst re-assembling it? I did, a couple of times because its so stupidly fragile. here is a stronger GoPro Hero 3 bezel for the watertight housing. Use at your own risk. Enjoy :)
Instructions
1. Print with 80% infill and 0.1mm layer height
2. Clean up edges with a knife, small file or dremel
3. Install onto housing making sure not to overtighten the screws. Inspect the installed bezel for signs of cracking etc. If there are any cracks, start over :(
4. TEST the new bezel by submerging the assembled housing in deep water WITHOUT the camera. If there are ANY signs of water in the housing after the test, start over :(
5. Bask in glory as you just saved yourself $50 on a new housing :)

Awesome dude, I'm flogging the bezel to add to a twist on base for a lens protector for mounting on my quadcopter, thanks for doing most of the work, much appreciated :)
