Lulzbot Mini and Mini 2 Clamp and Camera Holder for Raspberry Pi Octoprint

thingiverse

I wanted to design a simple-to-print and easy-to-assemble clamp and camera holder for my Raspberry Pi, so that I could remotely watch my builds using Octoprint. No tools, screws or adhesives are required. Everything snaps together easily. 1) The clamp attaches directly to the Lulzbot Mini frame. It's robust and won't slide or break easily. It contains a socket into which the ball from the camera holder (back) will insert 2) The back of the camera holder has 4 plastic pins into which the Raspberry Pi camera v2 PCB is gently inserted. DO NOT REMOVE THE PCB AFTER IT IS INSERTED ONTO THE PINS OR THEY WILL BREAK OFF 3) Gently clip the front of the camera holder onto the back. It will only fit one way. 4) Insert the ball into the socket. Depending on your printer settings, you may need to lightly sand the ball to get it to seat fully. DON'T OVER SAND IT 5) The ball-and-socket design allows freedom of rotation to set up the camera in exactly the optimal location
