iPhone 5/5S Otterbox Tripod Mount by jgoss

My web-blogger wife has been doing more and more Facebook Live videos as part of her social media strategy. She asked me to find a way to connect her iPhone to our tripod allowing her to make the videos without holding the phone. Facebook Live videos are shot in portrait mode, but her iPhone 5S Otterbox case fits snug enough that it can be tilted to landscape mode as well. One thing to note, this was very difficult to pry from the print bed once it was finished. I used the tripod baseplate as noted and designed this in OpenSCAD. I would post the source, but I did it really quick and it's a magic number mess that I'm too embarrassed to share.
