Blink Camera Slide-In Mount

prusaprinters

<p>If you own a Blink camera system, you know what an absolute pain in the posterior it is when you need to take one down to change batteries. &nbsp;Though there is some variation, in general it takes excessive force to put the camera back on its swivel device. &nbsp;This mounting system allows you to take the camera down with part of the mount still attached, replace the batteries in a more comfortable environment, and then just slide the tab into the slot to reinstall it.</p><p>Notes:</p><p>The tab-and-slot design was cut from the Filler filament holder (as it fits pretty nicely) but with a snap worked in to help with retention. &nbsp;It's a bit looser than I'd prefer but I may tweak it as I go along.</p><p>The Base and Plate parts have little printed “flaps” that act like brims to help keep them in place on the bed of the printer; they should be snapped off or cut away after printing.</p><p>The Base can be screwed to a flat surface directly, or you can print the Pillar and use it for vertical mounting. &nbsp;The mounting holes for both parts should be large enough for American deck-style screws, but are not too large for use with M4 flat-head (tapered) screws which is how I attach the pillar to the base.</p><p>Finally, the Pillar has four mounting holes for convenience; screws in either of the opposing pairs of holes should be sufficient to hold it in place.</p><h3>Print Settings</h3><p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p><p>Creality</p><p><strong>Printer:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>Ender 5 Plus</p><p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Supports:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p><p>0.2mm</p><p><strong>Infill:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>60%</p><p><strong>Filament:</strong> Inland Tough PLA Black</p>
