This 3d printed design includes a dovetail for mounting on a standard indicator stand arm.
Printing notes:
Depending on your filament/lenses, you may need to resize the components. I printed these after enlarging the parts x1.02 and they fit the lenses nice and snug.
You might be able to use this design as-is for different diameter lenses, by simply enlarging the objects, (and obviously, driling/tapping the screw holes).
Warning: do not overtighten the screws, they have plenty of material to bite into and could pull the print layers apart if you over-tighten them.
