Hello folks , I was looking to buy some OM mount rear caps but sadly in my country its not available , so I was thinking about getting one 3d printed , now does some one know already modeled stl file for the said rear cap ?? On the Net i have found M42 and Md mount ones , a crude FD mount one was also available. Did some one already make a OM mount one??

Oly 4/3 caps are quiet universal, try it out if you have a chance may fit as well on OM.

They are so easy available from China (worldwide free shipping) at reasonable pricing: Click here to see on Ebay

Does it really make sense to make them yourself instead?
The material for the 3D-printer isn't free of charge as well.

I tell you what would be bloody handy is a tamron adaptall bottom cap, like the transparent original.
Like the holy grail finding them little buggers and the price!!.
