Hello everyone. I would like to share my updated version of the miniscope holder. The previous one was lacking a good way to tilt the miniscope, so I added an articulated mount to it. With this new holder the user would only need to insert their own stereotax rod in the articulated part. The complete holder looks like this

Besides the part that holds the miniscope every other component is off the shelf. The bill of materials to build one is the following

Plastic-HeadThumb Screws, Two-Arm, 10-24 Thread, 1" Long. McMaster (clamps the existing rod of the stereotax)
Articulated mount
Thorlabs optical post Ø1/2" Optical Post, SS, 8-32 Setscrew, 1/4"-20 Tap, L = 1"
Washer and screw (not shown)
3D Printed miniscope holder (see attachments)
Thread-Forming Screws for Thin Plastic 18-8 Stainless Steel, M1 Size, 3 mm Long. McMaster

For subitem 5 there are two choices:

and

2.

The second version of the holder looks like this

If anyone tries any of these designs please let me know, I would love to have some feedback. I'll also upload this information to our github wiki.

Thank you

Federico
