Default Gopro straight joint

Does anyone know where I can get a Gopro joint like this:

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:123878

All of the joints I see online rotate every time you use one and make it longer than it needs to be. I have a mount on my tank and just want to raise the camera up about an inch. I have seen them as part of a front head mount but I don't want to buy one and find it is wrong.

Have a look on amazon, if they don't do it, nobody does.

Already have done. Only seems to be part of the front mount. Anyone on here got a 3D printer?

Can't you buy this and just use the one part?

Kenzie wants an extender that doesn't rotate the camera 90 degrees.

You should easily be able to concoct something using a couple of small ones maybe, by leaning it back to lose the height if two mounts together make it too high, it's hardly complicated.

I have tried this with the smaller joints, however putting two together allows the camera to vibrate a bit. I will try it again with two of the shortest ones but I would prefer to do it with one piece.

Figured it out. I will just use a new sticky mount on the tank but stick it 90 degrees to how it is now (across the bike instead of front to back) then the joint will rotate the camera straight again.
