5 Degree of Freedom Camera Mount for Digoo DG-M1Q. The arm can be adapted for any other cameras, and the Fusion 360 design can be found here: http://a360.co/2vAN0JS. It is meant to attach a camera to an aluminum extrusion that can fit an M4 square nut, such as one used on a CR-10 printer. <h5>Recommended Fasteners for Assembly</h5> - M4 Square Nut - M4 x 16 mm Machine Screw - M4 x 12 mm Machine Screw - M4 x 20 mm Machine Screw - M4 x 30 mm Machine Screw - M4 Hex Nut - 3 x M4 Thumb Nuts (Regular Hex Nuts Can Be Used Instead) <h5>Assembly</h5> Assembly is straightforward. To begin, insert the M4x16 screw into the "frame mount" and attach the M4 square nut slightly just so it stays on very end of the screw. Next, attach the "Frame Mount" to "Bracket A" with the M4x30 screw and the M4 thumb nut. Then, insert the M4 hex nut into the "Bracket B" recess (use pliers if needed) and attach to "Bracket A" using the M4x12mm screw. After that, attach "Bracket C" to "Bracket B" with the M4x20 screw and the M4 thumb nut. Carefully insert the camera body into the camera mount. Try not to break its fragile brackets. Attach the "camera mount" to "Bracket C" with the M4x25mm screw and the M4 thumb nut. Finally, insert the M4 square nut (wiggle it) into the aluminum extrusion on your printer where it won't interfere with moving parts, and screw in the M4x16mm screw until it's secure. Adjust all pivots until the camera is pointed where you want it and tighten the thumb screws. All parts other than the camera mount were printed in PLA. I recommend printing the camera mount in some strong and not too rigid filament (i.e., PETG), as two arms holding the camera might break when the camera is inserted. Also, please flip "camera_mount.stl" because it's upside-down :)
