POV camera strap mount

This is a strap mount for small POV cameras designed to be used on the leg or arm. It also seems to work well when strapped to the waist.

The mount is made from waterjet cut stainless steel and is then folded. Although the fold did not follow my perforations, it still works well. If I make another one in the future, I'd probably remove the perforation to save on cut time.

One-inch nylon web straps can be used to attach the mount to the leg or arm. The mount has the ability to hold a camera at different angles to allow for some interesting views.

Here, I have the camera mounted to my calf--mimicking how I'd use it when snowboarding.
