This design for a dual camera rig (see [Dual Camera Rig](/wiki/dual-camera-rig) for why you'd want to do this) is based on a T-shaped or L-shaped bracket, washers, and two bolts which fit into the camera mounting holes on most cameras.
You'll need:
* 2x 1/2 inch long 1/4"-20 coarse thread bolts (i bought the kind with grippy heads so i can mostly screw them in by hand, then tighten with a hex wrench)
* a thick rubber washer (mine was called a "Chicago style seat washer")
* 2 cameras with threaded mounting holes
* a 4"x4" T-bracket with 1/4" holes (an L-bracket could work too)
* a hex wrench or whatever you need to really tighten your bolts
Basically follow the steps in the images below:
Be sure the camera is facing "down", such that it will be hung by the base of the upside-down T. I did it wrong at first.
###Balance###
See how the cameras don't face downward in the following image? In the subsequent image I've tilted them so they actually face down. Do this before tightening the bolts.
###Triggering###
From here, you can just use a rubber band on each camera to trigger them without synchronizing -- it works pretty well. But if you're interested, I'll be posting soon on how to connect synchronized electronic triggers...
