Get a Grip! Nikon S2

[B-9]

Just wanted to post my latest creation, inspired by my new (to me) Nikon S2. Here's a haggard cell phone photo, will try to post better photo's this weekend when I have time.

Made of ABS plastic, hand shaped and finished. No paint yet.
Enjoy!

I'm assuming you made it via 3D printing?

Nice old schoolin' it!

Are you planning on making a mold and making copies?

I may down the road, I've got a few improvements to make with fit and finish. Right now a bit of gaffers tape behind the grip keeps it snug, I need to shave approx 2mm off the next ones base width to best fit the Nikon back.

I do have alumilite casting supplies I haven't used in atleast a year!
I should make a mold, and pour a few. I'm just not sure the result would be as rigid.

Looks great! Good inspiration for a grip I've been meaning to make for my Fuji 6x9. Thanks for sharing.
