Magnetic Bracket for ArduCam M12 OV5647 IR Camera for Raspberry Pi / Octopi

thingiverse

This is a simple magnetic camera mount for the "Arducam 5 Megapixels OV5647 Sensor Camera Module with M12x0.5 Mount Lens and Switchable IR Cut for Raspberry Pi." I use it with a MonoPrice MP Mini Delta 3D printer and OctoPi/OctoPrint. For the bracket, the distance between the screw mount holes is 28mm so it'll fit other cameras with that mount system. The cable passthru hole is 18mm wide which is sufficient for the raspberry pi camera cable. Put a neodymium magnet in the round area on the mount and it'll be a magnetic mount. You don't have to glue the magnet although you can -- and small ones are plenty strong so you don't necessarily need a 15mm magnet. The balance is also good enough that it should balance without the magnet although I use it to cantilever the mount away from the bed a bit (I use it with a MonoPrice MP Mini Delta which has a steel top plate).
