kossel x-profile clip-on ball joint raspi cam mount

thingiverse

I'm using sturdy ball joints derived from the source (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3412413) and a socket that clips into the x-profiles of my Anycubic Kossel, everything printed at 0.2 mm without supports. The ball joints will likely benefit from a raft, I tried both with and without. Raft quality or lack thereof won't affect the functionality of the joints. The bumper for my Raspberry Pi in the overview pic can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3401335, and the clips for mounting the bumper to the frame here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3390812 Thanks to Sergei for uploading the horizontal version these ball joints are based on. After some use, my ball-joints seemed to loosen up a bit. I made some new ones where I added 0.1 mm to the diameter of the ball. Try ball-joint.new.stl and/or dumbbell.new.stl if this happened to you also. Also, I decided to drop hollowing these ones out and just adjust the infill instead, 50% seems to work here. A cleaner version of the ball joints utilizing max overhang added. Your printer needs to be able to do 45° overhangs if you want to try this. If you don't have a Kossel, but are looking for something like this for your Anet A8, try this: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3439473
