GH5 DIY Large eyecup for GH4/GH5

[Ted Ramasola]

Would have posted this in the DIY section but since this is specific to GH4/GH5 decided to post this here.

I got a couple of requests for the GH4/GH5 oversized eyecup I made so I finally got around to making a template everyone can download and use in making their own.
The basic material is a 89 cent foam sheet 2mm in thickness.


You can find this is art stores or even in Walmart. Here's a short vid on how to make it.

The template to the eyecup can be found on my DIY/blog page.

Can't wait to see someone on eBay selling these for 40 bucks a pop.

That's what happened to the DIY Plywood skater I did years ago.

Printed the template, bought the foam (which was $0.99 and not $0.89 by the way. I feel so ripped off...). Ready to cut then my wife said she wants a Cricut printer since she is a Pediatric Dr. of Occupational Therapy and makes things for her patients. Perfect, that thing can cut foam so now I'm waiting for that thing to arrive.
