Sturdy home made camera mount

I installed a camera above my sister’s garage door that viewed the driveway. I wanted a compact sturdy support that provided for some adjustment. I made the camera box out of aluminum and plywood. 1/16” aluminum was used for the side plates and a front bottom keeper plate. 3/4” Plywood for the bottom and top plates, drill the top plate for ¼” mounting screw. The camera, painted black, slipped in from the back. This enclosure was attached by a ¼”x20 machine screw through the top place into a short length of 3”x3”x1/8” aluminum angle. The aluminum angle has a ¼” hole in each leg, one for the rafter connection and the other for the camera enclosure. I have yet to take out the power wire slack, fit it closely to nearby surfaces and cork the wire entry hole. One could hang from this camera without damaging it.
