I finally did it myself

I've been trying unsatisfactorily to find a shoulder mount that "worked" for what I wanted to accomplish with my Sony VG-10.
I decided to tackle it myself, and this is what I came up with.
Total cost, $22. It solved two basic issues; stopped the side to side wobbles when hand held, and put the EVF right in line with my eye so I can shoot using it without too many contortions. Works well

Looks comfortable and stable. Good work! And if you decide to sell copys, jscottprice gave you a name to use!
 
HaHa....I was thinking the same thing....

I actually looked at and tried quite a few different shoulder mounts for the VG-10 and was pretty disappointed with the amount of contortion I had to do just to look through the EVF.
This approach puts things just where I want them...now to add a set of removeable rods for attaching matte boxes, follow focus, etc...
