Customizable Logitech Webcam Mount-Stand

thingiverse

This project was created to hold a Logitech C270 web cam for my Octoprint server. Other printable camera mounts were either too small, or could not hold my C270 camera correctly. So I crafted this version. Shout out to the creator of this project https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:958176 as it was exactly what I needed, however it was too small and I found that I could not source the small screws for it, after I printed it. **Required:** - 5 - 2"x 6/32 machine screws (or set your screw sizes below) - 5 - 6/32 locking washers - 5 - 6/32 washers - 1 - 6/32 x 3/4" machine screw (camera screw) - 1 - 1"x 8/32 machine screw + nut (attach the base) - 4 - adhesive silicon feet (drawer bumpers) **Uploaded project files:** - cp_camera_mount.scad - the SCAD source file - cp_camera_mount_complete.STL - the complete tray of parts. All parts. - cp_camera_mount_tester.STL - a printable tester for the fasteners listed above. - cp_camera_mount_connectors.STL - just the two connectors. - cp_camera_mount_arms.STL - just the arms and bushings (1 pair). - cp_camera_mount_base.STL - just the lean version of the base. **Customizing this project:** 1. Note parts_h (height of parts) + bushing_h (height) will be added together to determine the Arm screw length as it is affected by this. 2. Arm screw diameter must be smaller than the Arm-end cylinder diameter! Keep it small. 3. Item #1 automatically calculates the width of the base-connector. **Printing notes:** - use the provided STL files if you can source these fasteners, or - print the Fastener Test Strip first! To ensure that your screws will fit! - Edit screw sizes in the SCAD file if needed. Remember that PLA shrinks as it cools and this makes screw hole sizes smaller. - Print all of the parts by setting "OUTPUT=1", or select individual parts to print using the settings. - Print in PLA * 15% infill * 0.30 resolution * 2 shells - Install the base converter part on to the base first! - Install the camera conversion connector "flat side up". (There are braces on this connector to keep the camera from falling downward due to gravity.) - Install a washer under each 6/32nds screw head on the arms. **Enjoy this self standing web cam.**
