Flexible Components for Sneaks Mount system

thingiverse

Hello all, I liked very much the design of sneaks holder system for the Pi camera and wanted to use it for my new 3D printer and my Pi-camera. By this I have recognized that the original ball did not fit into the camera mount without a proper rework. I also found that just a little bit more flexibility on this fantastic design would probably help for better camera adjustments whenever needed. Therefor I did following remix for it. I designed 4 new flexibe parts for sneaks mount system and reduced the ball diameter by 0,2 mm to be 15.8 instead of 16mm. In my opinion they fit perfect into the joints and are tight as well even with some weight on it. The FF-Join and FF-Ballplate having the same functionality and the FF-Ballplate is just a different design based on sneaks camera back module where I was starting with. Maybe you like it and enjoy using it as an further addition like me. 30.12.2020 Added new Ball-Ball.stl file for better short distance flexibility with the FF-Join, see pictures uploaded in addition. The print was done with a 4mm rim and support on the bed only. 21.02.2021 Added a new screwable Ball-Joint system for strong connection but still turnable by 360 degree with an angle of approx 25 degree. You can print this 2 new parts as provided in the .stl without rim and support. I did it with 0.2 mm with 30% Infill. Printed as 2 parts see new pictures above. Part 1. base with holder (base down) Part 2. The Screw lays down to the printing bed.(The ball will stay loose into it) 23.02.2021 Added 2 further parts to be absolutely flexible with the connection system between 2 flange and 1 flange system. The connection with Thumb Nut and Thumb Bolt for the flange system can be found under Sneaks Mount system. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3114849 28.02.2021 Uploaded 2 new Base-Joint versions with reduced thread radius by 0.15 mm for better screwability.
