gopro hero3 mount for reprappro, removable

cults3d

I was searching for a mount that would securely hold my GoPro Hero 3 Silver on my Reprappro Mendel when I stumbled upon Mickeshobby's creation at Thingiverse: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:124126. I appreciated the concept, but wanted to make adjustments so I could use the camera in base mode. Using Mikael's design as a starting point and incorporating Mark133's flat mount from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:40282, I created my own custom mount. It features a clamp that can be attached to any 8mm diameter rod, requiring only two M5 nuts. To secure the clamp to the machine, I used two M5 x 15mm button head screws. The frame designed by Deersign is an excellent base for this setup, but I found it necessary to scale down a version of their design (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:212082) to suit my needs. YMMV.
