JGAURORA A5 Remixed Camera Mount for Bed!

thingiverse

I tried the original however two issues arose: it was set so far forward that the camera hit the gantry, and since the mount was centered but the lens off-center of the camera I couldn't get a complete view of the bed. So I remixed it into several configurations. **Arm_Long_v1.STL**: is a version where we lengthened the arms so it sits back further from the bed and gantry. It also has three 1/4 inch holes to mount a camera or camera bracket 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 gantry. However, it 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, 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, 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 through and mount a camera. You can also use a ball head like this http://amzn.to/2DkrDNv, as well as 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.
