Print the sides on their backs
This is designed for the Canon 7D mk1 which is 42mm from the base of the camera to the centre of the lens and 0mm offset left/right. You can find this information for other common cameras here
To edit the fusion 360 file to fit a similar camera, set the distance of the first offset plane to match your camera vertically. You may wish to alter the chamfer on the back of the sides (print this side down) to fill that gap. Apologies for the horrible messy .f3d..
The main ring can be flexed slightly to fit this mount in when bolted together.
