Hi,
I am not planning to get into the business but the mount is so easy to assemble that you just need the parts. The PrincetonTec Switchback mounts are available by contacting PrincetonTec through their web site or 1-800 number. They charged $12 USD per mount when I bought mine. They have distributors all over the place who are supposed to stock them.
The Planet Bike Quick Cam mounts are available in Canada through MEC. The link is

The Planet Bike mount was $3.50 CAD. While I did not try it, I suspect that you could also make a good mount with two of the Planet Bike brackets and a small plate to connect them.
The assembly was dead easy. The "hot shoe" mount comes off the PrincetonTec bracket with a 2.5mm hexy key and the Planet Bike head comes off with a Phillips #1 screwdriver. Then you just take the screw from the Planet Bike mount to attach it the the PrincetonTec base oriented at 90 degrees.
Have fun!
