DIY trail camera mounts

[btsnhos]

I’ve been using these bad boys for years, honestly can’t remember the exact sizes anymore but this is how I attach all my cameras up high so that they can’t get stolen, on most public land it’s illegal to screw anything into a tree so I will screw these into a small block of 2x4 and then strap the wood to the tree with it angled appropriately. On some of my cheaper cameras (as shown) I’ll drill a small hole in and tighten two nuts, nicer cameras will have a spot to screw into on the bottom. Add a little spray paint to hide the shine and you’re golden. Hopefully this helps someone out there not get their cameras stolen.

Thats how i do it except i use wing nuts and weld the washers to the bolts so there isnt so much flopping around when not tight.

Yep. Do the same only with 1/2" carriage bolts and wing nuts. Square on the back of the carriage bolt head keeps bolt from turning while tightening. Like this much better than straps. You can attach it to horizontal limbs almost anything.
