CR-20 Pro - GoPro mount for Y-axis

thingiverse

Inspired by the versatile design of "Action Camera Flex Bubble Tripod" created by motojeff on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1201115), I embarked on a project to craft my own mount for my CR-20 Pro printer. Since I encountered difficulties in finding a suitable mount, I decided to take matters into my own hands and create one from scratch. This custom-designed mount is tailored to fit snugly at the front of the printer, providing a secure base for the camera. The camera is mounted using an M5 acorn nut and an M5 GoPro-style thumb screw, ensuring a stable connection. To further enhance flexibility, the camera can be extended outward using an extension mechanism, such as the one found in https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3030471. For smaller prints that span up to 130mm on the Y-axis, the camera can be positioned without extensions and placed very close to the bed, resulting in minimal wobble. However, it is essential to ensure that the print is centered within the front half of the bed to avoid any collisions with the camera. This custom mount is designed to accommodate Creality printers with a 40x40mm Y-axis profile, including models like the CR-20 Pro, Ender 3 Pro, and others.
