The leveler itself has 6 M3 holes top and bottom, (siting on a circle of diameter 26.7mm), and I've made top and bottom adapter plates which take a 3/8" 20 bolt and nut respectively. I designed with McMaster Carr parts and tested it with parts from the open bins in Home Depot. (I have printable 3/8 to 1/4 inch adapters in my things.) There are 2 top pieces, one which will work with a 1 inch bolt, and a lower profile one which may need a shorter bolt, depending on the tripod head you are using.
