Well done, Tom @tcincla!
Excellent result; and what a quickie!

Great build, Tom. @tcinla
And indeed very quick.
I always struggle to find time and get my modelling going.
May I ask what kind of camera you are using?

It's a reconditioned Nikon D60 I picked up for "an offer I could not refuse" while the D500 is getting fixed from a glitch that resulted in the mirror box locking the mirror up. These are mostly due to shooting in bad light on auto and the poor camera is trying like hell to figure out what to do. One thing I really like about this camera that makes it more than a "spare" is the previous owner equipped it with rubber body armor, so if it gets "banged" it's a lot less like to get hurt, with a half-inch "skirt" at the bottom that really protects it if it gets dropped. The D60 is still a really useful camera with the AF-S 18-55 lens.

Thanks for sharing, Tom.
Even a reconditioned D60 is a great camera, for sure more than a spare.
Hopefully they get your D500 fixed because this an absolute superb piece of machinery.
