ELP Camera Mount for Boss LS-1420, LS-1416

thingiverse

This Camera Mount is designed to fit the ELP Camera model #ELP-USB500W02M-L21 perfectly onto the 5th Generation Boss Laser LS-1420/1416. It may work with other ELP cameras and mount on different Boss laser models, but I have only tested this setup. I successfully used the camera with LightBurn software. Assembly Notes: Hardware needed: 2 x 10mm M3 cap screws, 2 x M3 hex nuts Electronics needed: ELP Camera (see link below), 3-meter USB A (male) to USB A (female) Tools needed: Metric Allen wrenches (2.5mm and 3mm - I'll double-check later) Print Settings: PETG with 4 perimeters, 0.2mm layer height, 20% infill. 1) My camera's focus ring was stuck in place due to glue. I used a hobby knife to cut through the adhesive and free the focus ring (you will need to adjust the focus manually later). 2) Insert the M3 hex nuts into the Camera bucket. I used the cap screws to pull the nuts into place. 3) Insert the camera into the bucket, pushing it firmly onto the plastic standoffs. 4) Mount the bracket to the machine using the two screws that secure the handle to the lid. The bracket has an offset to ensure the camera doesn't interfere with the lid's full closure. It should be obvious which way to mount the bracket, but you'll quickly realize if you've made a mistake. 5) You will need a male-to-female USB A extender because the camera cable is too short. I routed the cable out the back of the machine, alongside other wires and coolant lines. If you have any questions, please post a comment below. This project is still a Work-In-Progress. In addition to the STL files, I'm uploading STEP files so that others can modify them as needed. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KA83C8O/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
