Camera mount for the e36

Photobucket

This design needs work on the mounts, but so far this mounts into the car. Its not completely stable but after a bit of work it will be a lot more rigid.

There's two straight pieces, a curved piece in the middle that I TIG welded together. Also a straight piece where I flattened the ends and have the camera swivel mount permanently installed. On the ends I welded in nuts for the bolts to thread into and the chassis mounts will be replacing the flimsy "candy-cane" mounts I have now.

These "candy-cane" mounts were especially hard to make. I first tried to drill through the flat stock but for some reason it wasn't real easy to drill such a large diameter hole through the metal. So instead I cut some small diameter tubing for the bolts to go through. Then the hard part came...i had to weld the metal rings to the flat stock. so i used the grinder to make a circular shape that mimicked the rings, and then carefully welded them together. Afterwards my friend Eric helped me heat up the opposite ends of the flat mount so that I could hammer them 180 degrees the other way.

Sadly, once i got in the back seat and installed the mount, i realized that the candy cane mount system was not stable enough. so i will revamp the mount sections to be considerably more stable and secure, and possibly add a third extension to rest on the floor of the car, helping further stabilize the whole mount.

Updated version coming soon!
