I wanted to try the Peak Design micro clutch without having to pay for something that I might not end up liking so I came up with this. Paracord and some spare peak design anchor parts I had lying around and to be honest I like it way more than what I was trying to replicate as this solution doesn’t cover the battery door!

It feels very secure in hand and I’ve now made one for all of my cameras. The anchor clip isn’t even required and in hindsight I could have excluded it.
The plate on the bottom is this part that I had sitting around spare. I just used some pliers to bend and snap the angle off of it to make the profile slimmer and drilled my own hole. I also replaced the fixture bolt with a slimmer option I also had on hand. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mr2qbAX I found that getting the connection point at the bottom of the camera to be as close as possible to the base of the hand made a big difference in how secure it felt in hand as there’s less strap to flip around. I assume this is why the Peak Design Micro Clutch covers the battery door.
If you need arca plate on the bottom this could be a better option for the mount plate. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mqCdoFd

Edit: clutch, not clitch. Oh how I wish we could edit post titles…
