Seafrogs Salted A6xxx housing too tall for normal trigger arm-levers? Solved!

You'll see when you get it. My first one (7.5cm) I just used a hobby/x-acto knife and a hand file. I wish I'd remembered about this earlier. I've reinstalled my computer, but haven't installed Blender or anything to edit the file yet.

It's not IDEAL but it will be fine.

oh, and ~$10 was what I paid too... though my second one (6cm) was done by a friend, which only costs a few cents of material

Yea, I understand. Actually I did not alter the print, I just used longer screws I had sitting around that were a) stainless and b) same size / thread pitch as the other screws. What coincidence? They were for a raspberry pi case.

The piece worked a charm, I was able to use the trigger for a couple dives. I've got some other issues going on I need to fix but overall I'm pretty happy here. Thank you so much!

Example shot I likely would not have gotten without the trigger!

@DivingAroundAsia Do you still have the .stl files available to share for the shutter trigger extension?

There are places tha twill print a "thing' for you, many are online. Drag and drop the file and get a quote and pick material. There are quite a few "things" in Thing Universe. Maybe y'all could share the file for the trigger "thing" and print some up for your camera rigs.
