My camera mounts started with stock that I cut and drilled to match the assembly. These aluminum plate blanks are another purchased stock format for that kind of layout work.

The item in my kit
I bought Quarter-Inch Aluminum Plate Blanks as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I cut and drilled aluminum bracket pieces for the roof cameras and lights. The camera mounts needed additional holes and adjustments as I brought the assemblies together on the extrusion.
I sprayed the camera-mount pieces with black bedliner during the fabrication sequence. The coated brackets then formed part of the roof camera and light arrangements shown in the diary.

My build notes
The black finish was one stage within the mount fabrication. The holes and profile connections still determined where the pieces could sit, so the diary records the drilling and fitting alongside the coating.
The bracket shape, drilled holes and coating were separate parts of finishing the mount.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
The square aluminum plate provides a wider layout area. The narrow flat-bar set starts closer to a strap or small connector shape and changes the cutting needed.
Square Quarter-Inch Aluminum Plate
This square aluminum plate provides a broad flat fabrication blank. Its quarter-inch section leaves room for a cut shape and drilled mounting pattern.
