Magnetic PS3 Camera Mount

thingiverse

Universal magnetic camera mount for PS3 camera. PS3 cameras are readily available for very little money, and make fine Astroprint-compatible 3d printer cameras. This uses a 1/2" x 3/8" rare earth magnet (picked up from CMS Magnetics on eBay for another project) to clamp the camera to the printer housing. Remove the camera from the bulky plastic housing, and reuse two of the screws to attach the board to this mount. In my QIDI Tech 1, the mounted camera fits vertically inside the case and above the access door where it isn't visible from the outside.
