easy if you have machine shop access. just turn a M10 to M12 or 5/16 to M12 adapter. if not, any machine shop can make the part for you. you might be able to find some kind of thread adapter at a hardware store.

Search for M12 M10 reducer.

I'm not sure if this tamper is offered for sale anywhere, but it looks interesting. I was thinking you could hold your smartphone on top of your tamper and use a bubble level app, but this is more elegant.

I've been suggesting this for 8-9 years, ever since I got my first nekkid PF.
To late now, as my whole body is off-kilter.

I had a tamper with a level bubble in the end, and it also had a spring inside to "measure" the tamping force...it wasn't all that.
