C270 Focuser with LED Ring support

cults3d

This is an enhanced version of the enhanced Logitech C270 manual focus system. I love the original file's simplicity, but I wanted to add a LED ring around the camera lens for improved image quality on Octopi prints, so I edited the focuser front by adding holes where I could install my support for the LED ring. The LED ring I used has an 8cm external diameter, a 6.4cm internal diameter, and a 1cm width around the ring. I bought it at a China store, so if you can find one like this, you're ready to add some awesome lighting to your printer! I made several pieces to make printing easier and installation straightforward. These pieces are: 1. C270_Focuser_Front_with_holes.stl: This is the model with holes that I remixed by adding them. It will be attached to the original model pieces using 2 1cm M3 screws. 2. SideLED.stl: This is the support for the side of the LED ring, which is small and uses less material than having the entire LED support in one piece. Simply push it into the holes, and it will have a tight fit. You can also add a drop of super glue to ensure it stays in place. 3. TopLED.stl: This piece goes on top of the ring and has a tight fit in the holes like the side piece. It's longer than the side one to position the camera lens right in the middle of the ring for perfect illumination of the print while printing. 4. BottomLED.stl: Like the TopLED, but this piece goes on the lower side. The three pieces have a tight fit with the ring, so you don't need any glue or additional materials! With this modular design, you can also edit it to use an existing LED ring by modifying the three pieces that hold the ring according to your dimensions and inserting them into the holes. You can find the other two pieces, the focus ring and backplate, on the original model link in my "Remixed from" section. I don't want to reupload them, as it would reduce the visibility of the original model's creator. So be sure to check it out! Let me know if you like this design! If you print one yourself (maybe share a photo, and I'll really appreciate it!), consider checking my other creations on my profile. I'm still learning how to model things, but I have plenty of ideas and will upload them soon! If you'd also like to support me with a tip, I'll truly appreciate it! It will encourage me to continue creating designs like this because I'll know that someone values my work!
