Sorry I don't have time to explain in greater detail, I'll let the pictures do the talking.
All it requires is:
-Machine screw, 3mm or 4mm or 1/8"
-Matching washer, outside diameter about 12mm, 10mm is too small
-Matching lock nut, serrated or nylon
-Matching spacer, nylon or aluminum, cut to about 3.5mm long
-Larger vibration absorbing ball dampener - typically 100g to 300g capacity, about 20mm tall, 18mm wide

With these things you can simply suspend anything off the Electrohub and have it be isolated from vibration.
No need to enlarge any of the holes to fit the vibration dampeners.
Use any of the existing small holes in the Electrohub plate to place your vibration dampeners wherever you like.
Just carefully slide the bulb over the washer, it's amazing how well it holds, especially if the washer is centered and really locked on to the screw. Use some kind of Loctite on the washer and nut otherwise they'll undo themselves. I'd secure the whole thing with a short piece of monofilament or string, just in case something rips out all your vibration dampeners and sends your battery, gimbal and camera flying.
I plan on suspending a 1mm plate of G10 and then mounting rails to that to carry the battery and gimbal.
Any thoughts folks? Improvements?
