Updates: The hook no longer needs supports Units changed to inches so you don't have to convert All-in-one file should now lay flat on bed Thanks Hybrid_Potato for the feedback! I use an old iPhone as a webcam to monitor my prints. Since there's no good way to get a good angle, I made this little hook thing that lets you hang a phone or camera on a platform facing the printer bed. You can adjust it on all axes - adjust the height and depth, and slide it left and right to get a good angle. Instructions I like printing multiple pieces at once. If that's your jam, too, use the STL with all 3 models. Otherwise, print the 3 pieces separately. The base has a hole for the arm to slide into, as does the hook. For the hook, I use supports (Simplify3D), so to get them out, I jab it with a screwdriver on each inner wall until it slides out. Assemble the model and hang it on the front of the printer. The front part of the hook is narrow enough to fit between the heat cover and the machine. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, check out the pictures! Note: The arm is a little longer and the bed a little wider than it indicated in the pictures. I made some adjustments to the STL files after that last photo set was taken.
