CR-10 Camera Mount

CR-10 Camera Mount

I crafted this design to seamlessly integrate with a Tecknet USB camera which I use in conjunction with Octoprint for real-time monitoring during print jobs. This setup should be easily adaptable to other mounting configurations. This mount fits snugly into the 2020 extrusion on my CR-10, and it should also fit any 2020 extrusion (please share your "make" if you use it for a different printer model). UPDATE: June 2019 Following a mishap where I accidentally bumped the original design, causing it to break, I created an updated base that is more robust. This new version is labeled as "V2" in the files and should provide better durability. If you require a custom mount for your camera, please let me know and I will design one, assuming it only involves adding a simple hole. All I need to know is the required dimension of this hole, which can be shared in the comments. Here are the necessary parts: * 2 M5 10mm bolts * 2 M5 t-nuts * 1 M3 10mm bolt * Web Cam: I utilized the "Tecknet C016 USB HD Webcam" from Amazon for approximately $15. This camera works seamlessly with Octoprint, requiring no configuration beyond a simple plug-and-play setup. A zip tie is also recommended. Assembling this mount is straightforward. First, insert the M5 bolts into the bottom mount with t-nuts attached. Next, remove the cover on the corner of the CR-10 2020 extrusion and slide in the mount. Replace the cover and secure it by tightening the screws. Ensure that your bed won't collide with this new component. If you are using the TEknet camera, disassemble the stock mount by unscrewing it. Then, fit the camera into the mount and screw it back in place. Finally, use the M3 10mm bolt to secure the mount down. To keep the wire out of the way, utilize a zip tie. I hope you find this design helpful!
