Premium Members Jess Haas SOC Posted May 14, 2009 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 I am looking to convert my arm from its non standard pin to the traditional socket block in anticipation of an upcoming vest upgrade. Anyone have some spare arm parts sitting around collecting dust? I need the male socket block and whatever else of the hinge and adjustment pieces I can get. The more I get the less I need to make from scratch. ~Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Jess Haas SOC Posted May 14, 2009 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 My arm is an old actioncam arm. Its connection works rather well and allows for tools free adjustment in both axis but I need to do something so that I can use it with a new pro vest which I hope to buy sometime in the not too distant future. The manufacture said that they have done a conversion on them before but has yet to get back to me with prices and details. They are all the way in Sweden anyway and I have been thinking about putting together a home machine shop so if I can get some parts to get me started I think I can do the conversion myself. My other option seems to be to mount the existing socket block to a pro bridgeplate or a newly constructed bridge plate. This should work but would be a little bulky and wouldn't fit with my desire to make all my connections more standard. I hope to get a new arm at some point but upgrading from an arm that can quickly adjust from almost no weight to 60+pounds is a bit pricey. ~Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
