I have created this thing since I sometimes take video and make photo's at the same time.
The hotshoe place is taken by the flasher and i had no way to attach my Rode Microphone.
I created this thing to clamp around the ring of a Canon 430ex flasher (but it might suite others) Diameter of this ring is 35 mm thickness is 4.6mm.
I have it attached to a Canon EOS 100d which is a tight fit.

Please check the video on how to attach.

Please let me/us know if it fits on other flashers or camera's so we can other users.

Best is to print this part laying flat at your print bed (ring down, shoe vertical up)
Because of the strength the clamping ring needs.
Placed supports as needed. (i needed a few)
