I wanted to hang my bessa like you can when you have a trigger winder... since it's made of very light weight aluminum i figured i could do this pretty cleanly and easily

So I have this broken pen EE and stripped it of it's neckstrap lugs... these lugs have a screw post extending into the inside of the camera and a nut to hold it in the inside of the camera...

then I drilled a small hole on the outside of the sidegrip and a large hole on the inside (to make room for the nut) then screwed in and coated with jb weld...

the jb weld is still drying but it will be painted back... I've already hung a 15 lbs weight from it... so i think it's pretty solid...

anyways here are the pics:
