Other printable camera mounts were either too small, or could not hold my C270 camera correctly. So I crafted this version. Shout out to the creator of this project https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:958176 as it was exactly what I needed, however it was too small and I found that I could not source the small screws for it, after I printed it. ;( ** *Required:* ** - **5** - 2"x 6/32 machine screws (or set your screw sizes below) - **5** - 6/32 locking washers - **5** - 6/32 washers - **1** - 6/32 x 3/4" machine screw (camera screw) - **1** - 1"x 8/32 machine screw + nut (attach the base) - **4** - adhevive silicon feet (drawer bumpers) ** *Uploaded project files:* ** - **cp_camera_mount.scad** - the SCAD source file - **cp_camera_mount_complete.STL** - the complete tray of parts. All parts. - **cp_camera_mount_tester.STL** - a printable tester for the fasteners listed above. - **cp_camera_mount_connectors.STL** - just the two connectors. - **cp_camera_mount_arms.STL** - just the arms and bushings (1 pair). - **cp_camera_mount_base.STL** - just the lean version of the base. ** *Customizing this project:* ** 1. Note **parts_h** (height of parts) **+ bushing_h** (height) will be added together to determine the Arm **screw length** as it is affected by this. 2. Arm screw diameter must be smaller than the Arm-end cylinder diameter! Keep it small. 3. Item #1 automatically calculates the width of the base-connector. ** *Printing notes:* ** - use the provided STL files if you can source these fasteners, or - print the Fastener Test Strip first! To ensure that your screws will fit! - Edit screw sizes in the SCAD file if needed. Remember that PLA shrinks as it cools and this makes screw hole sizes smaller. :^) - print all of the parts by setting "OUTPUT=1", or select individual parts to print using the settings. - print in PLA * 15% infill * 0.30 resolution * 2 shells - install the base converter part on to the base first ! - install the camera conversion connector "flat side up". (There are braces on this connector to keep the camera from falling downward due to gravity.) - install a washer under each 6/32nds screw head on the arms. ** Enjoy this self standing web cam.**
