ELP Webcam case with tripod mount

thingiverse

its for the elp 2.0mp usb camera with 2.8-12mm Varifocal Lens, but other lenses work too. the tripod mount is just a 6.2mm hole which you have to drive a hot tripod screw into to create the thread. the top cover will be attached using 1.75mm filament you stick into the holes and seal it off with some glue or a hot knife. Print Settings Printer: anet a8 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 15% Notes: print sepperate / after each other. a little bit of brim i used (5 lines) but you dont necessarily need it. Post-Printing Making the Tripod nut Get a tripod screw and heat it up with a lighter, then screw it into the part. that you create the threads. Attaching the cover put 1.75mm filament into the holes in the top cover with some glue, or just seal it up with a hot knife. you also can use screws if you got some that fits. Putting in the Camera its a tight fit, very tight. if you cant push it in try to scrape off some material on the pcb outside. be careful, the pins inside the housing are fragile. the slot on the left side of the housing is for the IR Cut filter cable. How to Remove and put back on the Lens theres ONE small screw on the Camera module that releases the thread of the lens. remember where it was exactly, otherwise you have to refocus everytime you zoom in. Attach USB cable on the back is a slot where the USB Connector cable fits trough, just use some tweezers to snap it in the socket. notice which way around it goes in How I Designed This How i made this? In sketchup. I had the camera laying around in here and measured every bit with calipers to create the model, thats why its a very tight fit.
