This is the Shutter Grip MK.3 for the Nikon FM2, FM3a and FE2 featuring a functioning shutter button, an Arca-Swiss mount, film rewind button access, a strap lug, and a magnetic coin holder for the battery door and the 1/4inch bolt.
required parts:
M3x6 x2 cap head for the lid
M3x8 x1 cap head for the bottom of the grip bottom left
M3x12 x2 cap head for tuning the shutter button and the strap lug pin
M3x16 x1 cap head for the rocker
M3x20 x2 cap head for the bottom of the grip top left, bottom right
12x3 mm magnet for the coin
and a after-market shutter button to screw in to the 3d printed shutter button no wider than 10mm in diameter, mine is a cheap one from the internet
This is an iteration on my MK.2 design that makes it function better as well as adding a feature
i have removed the tuning screw on the lever so as to keep it easier to build and more consistent in function. i moved the axis of the lever farther forward so the shutter click has a defined half press for metering as well as a tactile click for shutter actuation. in addition i have included a model of the base-plate with a place for an Apple AirTag. The assembly instructions for the MK.2 design still apply to the MK.3 design but you can skip the lever tuning step.
