Does anyone know the correct name for this?

[ThoughtFission]

Could anyone tell me what the correct name for this is? I want to make my own stitching pony out of walnut or ebony. But I'm not sure where to source this part because I don't know term to use in my search?

Thanks!

That looks like a bespoke piece but I reckon a ball-head from a camera tripod could do the job. Use a heavy weight duty one from the likes of Manfrotto

It's a good idea.But I was hoping to save a bit of money, and have something a little more suited to the job by sourcing it from Aliexpress of somewhere similar.

The ball head itself is standard stuff. From the ball upwards, however, that shaft and the fitting attached to it,  with hinge, is a custom piece.

The outfit making those swivel mount stitching ponies likely had it made specifically for this purpose,  their design.
