Modular Magnetic Mini Camera Mount

thingiverse

This case and the brackets were created to meet my needs for a small wide-angle camera for use with OctoPrinti/OctoPi. The camera used is this one: [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LQ854AG/](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LQ854AG/) Thingiverse seems to be changing that link, search for "ELP-USBFHD01M 180 degree fisheye" I had to modify octopi.txt to add the correct camera options; this is what I used: > camera_usb_options="-r HD -f 60" The knobs, arms, and printable screws/nuts can be found here and is the project these items are remixed from: [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2194278](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2194278) For the magnetic mounts, you must pause the print before the slots are closed off, insert the magnets, then resume the print. I use Prusa's ColorPrint site to insert an M600 command into the gcode for the appropriate layer. It should work for any firmware that understands the command and can be found here: [https://www.prusaprinters.org/color-print/](https://www.prusaprinters.org/color-print/) Magnet size used: 18mm x 3mm (bought at Home Depot). Two for the small base, three for the larger hex base. I recommend the 3-magnet base if you're using more than one arm. I only made the two magnet version because I broke my third magnet and didn't feel like going back to the store. V2 of the mount gives a little more space for the cable if it's exiting the case in that direction.
