Can't wait! Guess it's time to bite the bullet and buy a cam.
Just checking to see if anything has shipped yet.
Would love to see a pic for this through the wall camera mount. Very interested in getting 2 of them.I do intend on shipping products... I am just in the midst of a job change, and trying to get my BALLS project finished up... I have to be honest, I don't really like the angle the camera is at right now, and I don't want to ship out something I am not happy with. For those who have sent me money, I don't think I have accepted it, but if I have I will certainly return it if you'd like... I hadn't planned on going to BALLS, but I'm kind of committed at this point, and I'll be honest, this project has gotten neglected as a result. Sorry I haven't been real communitive, I really do feel bad about that.
I also hope these come to fruition but I understand that they may not. As you noted in your initial post, LiquidFyre made an excellent product, had good customer service, and still completely stopped making the product. Dan appears to have a viable product as well, but he proactively returned the money I sent him without my even asking him to. Which is in itself excellent customer service. So two good guys with the skills to do this apparently decided for one reason or another that it wasn’t worth it, which I understand. Dan, if I’m off the mark here, and/or you have additional comments, please chime in.New Year bump!
Hmm...thanks for the info!
I don't have a camera yet either. Wanted to make sure I can get all the parts first.
What about the mobius. There are extension cables for the camera element readily available.

Viewing angle of lens and distance between mirrors......... Mirrors would need to be front surfaced.
A periscope has a narrow viewing angle without optics. Binoculars. Which use the same principle, have optics at both ends. Could be made to work. If you just used 1 mirror and it was close to lens it would be the same as the old astrocam.
Worth having a play with camera and a lump of plasticine with a mirror stuck in it to see where your limits are and if you can get it to work distance wise go for it. Dental mirrors are front surfaced and readily available on eBay. If you've got a junk SLR camera the viewfinder mirror is a good size and is front surfaced.

Says Out of Stock for me....Norm - thanks for the insights. Yes, first surface mirrors would be a must. Quick search on Amazon led me to this 6x8" sheet which I might grab to experiment with.
