JGAURORA A5 Remixed Camera Mount for Bed!

cults3d

So I tried the original however two issues arose, the first is it set so far forward and the camera hit the gantry and second since the mount was centered, and the lens off center of the camera I could not get a complete view of the bed. So I remixed it into several configurations. Including the following: Arm_Long_v1.STL: is a version where we lengthened the arms so it sits back further from the bed and gantery. It also has three (3) 1/4 inch holes to mount a camera or camera bracket to as one is centered and two are offset (for a camera with a center offset lens. Arm_Long_v2.STL: is a version where we lengthened the arms so it sits back further from the bed and gantery. However has four M3 holes with openings for M3 nuts (either 10 or 12mm M3's will work see: http://amzn.to/2FsQj75 ). As this version uses the Camera Base_v.STL and it can sit either in the center or offset left or right. Arm_Short_v2.STL: is a version with standard length arms and has four M3 holes with openings for M3 nuts (either 10 or 12mm M3's will work see: http://amzn.to/2FsQj75 ). As this version uses the Camera Base_v.STL and it can sit either in the center or offset left or right. Camera Base_v1.STL: is the base for v2 Arms and has a 1/4 inch opening for a standard tripod bolt to pass though and mount a camera. You can also use a ball head like this http://amzn.to/2DkrDNv as well as a you can use a cell phone mount such as this http://amzn.to/2DnwL3E or even this http://amzn.to/2CT6uZX to hold your phone. I would also recommend the ThiEYE 4k action camera http://amzn.to/2FtWxUc as it is a very lightweight 4k camera with great timelapse features! Also if Interested in getting your own JGAURORA A5 check out the deals on Gearbest for them here https://goo.gl/efnSH4 as these folks have been great to work with and are huge supporters of the 3D Printing community! To mount you will need to remove the two front bed leveling (tramming) nuts and lift up ad slide the arms into the bed rails. This will be somewhat tight to hold the arms tights and force (gently) the bed bolts back through the openings and return the nuts. Also watch the heated bed connector as it likes to pop off so you will need to pop it back on. Major Favor: if you make one of these please post the Make and share it with the community :-) .
