Vive Base Station Mounts.

Could someone do me a quick favour and post a close up image of just the Vive base station mounts?

Need to plan on how I can mount that to a pole in a stable manner and I have no idea what shape of bracket I need to accommodate. If you can put a ruler in shot so I can judge scale that would help a lot.

Thanks.

I've been reading about your dilemma with your landlord doesn't allow drilling, so my suggestion is to buy a pair of solid tripods and two spherical tripod heads with and for 1/4'' thread.

Though it might not be too useful for you, to get a link to a german site, I'm providing what I bought:

works excellent [up]

Just a suggestion but Thingaverse has some interesting Vive mounts that are printable. If you know anyone with a 3D printer.

Just get a pair of Gopro handlebar mounts and thread the lighthouses directly onto those, then clamp then onto the poles. Unless you're able to make a plywood plate that can be rigidly connected to the pole (plumber's worm gear clamps?), the stock mount isn't any use to you.

Don't use the mounts. The lighthouses screw into the mount using a standard photography screw hole. Any standard photography mount (if you have a tripod it'll fit) will do the trick.

What I found very useful, especially since I need to shift the lighthouses regularly because I play "room scale" games in an adjacent room, are gorilla pods.
They safely attach to almost everything. :)
