Designed to hold a 5" video monitor on the dash of my truck, but can be stuck to any flat surface. (I used the build plate to heat up the base and mold it to a slight curve in my dash panel).
The mounting arm I designed (seen in one picture) was specific to the monitor I had so I did not include that file, To make your own arm you just need to start with a 10mm diameter cylinder. 12-13mm long will break you even with the top of the ball depending on how firm you push them together. I found it helps to chamfer the inserted end of the arm to get it started.
Designed in Fusion360 and I will share those files out if anyone wants them. Just send me a message
