Good find! Although I am a little confused on why you would want to mount a still camera?

you can mount a video aswell...... they have the same mounting hole.
besides, if you dont have a video c....... most cameras can take video now. incase your stuck in the 1900's....

All point and shoots take Video, my D90(dslr) takes video too. Mounting holes are universal on all cameras. (otherwise you'd have a billion tripod options)

Good! The only thing that is missing with this setup is tilt. I'll make one that you can tilt. I'll post some pix soon.
Thanks for posting this idea...

oh nice! i did a search but dident come up with anything...

anyway i went to home depot and got everything plus more for 6 bucks.. threw it together eyeballing everything and came up with this.

just took it for a spin with the camera rolling. the vid is uploading now. it worked pretty well but im definitely going to improve it mechanically and aesthetically more as i only just threw it together

You can also make it into a 'steady' cam mount fairly easy. (the pvc tubing)

Can a D60 take video? I just got mine for Xmas and anyway I can view what the camera is looking at by looking at the LCD screen instead of looking thru peep hole lol
