OctoPrint Pi Cam for Walmart Lamp

thingiverse

This is a mounting system for the Pi Cam to fix it to a Walmart "Mainstays LED Desk Lamp, Brushed Nickel". It would fit to any lamp with a flexible gooseneck of similar size. The Camera simply rests in the clip slot. There are some good looking mounts on Thingiverse but this one prints without support and takes extreme minimal material. The flat flex clips print in 8 minutes, on my printer. The whole thing can be printed in about 2 hours or 1 hour without the base tray. The base stand is simply to keep the aluminum pi case from scratching the lamp base and also to keep the pi located. It isn't necessary and probably won't work for many cases. The case in the pic is a cheap case from eBay. The Pi also has heatsinks applied, in case anyone is curious. Happy printing!
