DSLR Adjustable Desktop Stand

thingiverse

This is an adjustable and rotatable desktop stand I made for my Canon M50 so I could use it as a webcam, it should work with any compact to mid size DSLR camera.I took inspiration from blackbearstudio's design here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5395698It can be rotated a full 360 degrees and angle up approx 30 degrees and down approx 75 degreesPrinting Instructions:All items were printed on either my Ender 3 v1 or my Ender 3 S1 PlusIf using 280mm arms for rear then use 240mm arms for front,If using 240mm arms for rear then use 190mm arms for frontFor rear arms print 2 of each so 2 standard and 2 captive nuts of your chosen lengthFor front arms print 1 standard and 1 captive nuts of your chosen length I printed all main parts at 0.28mm layer height with 50% infill, they could be printed with smaller layer height for a more asthetic look but printing will take some time.Supports only required for Base StandFor Top and Bottom Slip Rings I printed these at 0.12mm layer height with 100% infill as I wanted these to be strong and last as they will start to wear down if the stand is rotated a lot.I also used a little bit of silicone grease on these to help with rotation.I also use the Ulanzi Falcam F38 quick release mounting system but there are various quick release systems available on thingiverse to print if requiredHardware Requirements:7 x M5 x 20mm Bolts8 x M5 Nuts (Nyloc would be best)1 x M12 x 45mm Bolt for Base Plate1 x M12 Nut (Nyloc Best)1 x Gopro Thumb Screw (This could be substituted for another M5 Bolt but the gropro thumb screw makes angle adjustment simple)Additional Resources:Gopro Thumb Screw - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2394225Tripod Screw - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4003381Print the above at 0.12 layer height and 100% infill for best results.I would really like to hear from anyone that prints this and know how you get on with it, I'm also open to suggestions for improvement of the design as I'm still relatively new to designing my own stuff.
