This was a fun project, I had to measure and figure out the iottie thread pitch and then create an adapter to go from a phone mount stand to a backplate on my wireless camera screen for a backup camera on a trailer.

Basically replicated the back plate from the original phone mount with the same tolerances and spacing.

Took 2 test prints to make sure the threads and spacing was right, then I printed it out of PETG. Seems to hold up well, but I might end up adjusting the design over time if it has a weak point.
