C270 Camera Mount

thingiverse

I compared numerous camera mounts and sought one that was extremely simple yet aesthetically pleasing without requiring the disassembly of the camera. Acknowledging this design incorporates a significant amount of support material (utilizing auto-generated supports in Simplify3D), it's remarkably easy to remove and reinstall the camera within seconds, still allowing for the utilization of the tilt function of the original camera base. 03/31/2018 - Update: The previous design of the support arm failed after approximately 100 hours of printing due to vibration and a narrow mounting post on the support arm. I increased the diameter of the post and reworked it to extend all the way through the base. The new version of the support arm is v44 (significantly stronger). This necessitated redesigning the camera mount, with the new version being v14, by enlarging the diameter of the mounting tube to accommodate the new support arm.

The "v14" version of the STL may require reorientation before printing (the top of the mount should be positioned on the print bed, with the mounting tube facing upwards). 2.) The attached G-code file was created using Simplify3D, configured for the Prusa MK3, including supports and temperatures set for eSUN 1.75mm Glass Light Blue PLA.
