Homebuilt devices are those that use a housing made by an individual rather than one produced commercially. These housings can be made from off the shelf materials, convert replica units into real ones, be 3d printed or use any other method of machining. These housings can be customised to fit the exact needs of the user, often at a significantly lower cost than that of commercial housings. In addition to housings, other equipment such as J arms, mounts, image intensifier boots, display stands and lens caps can be home built.
