Pi camera mount for V-slot rail or E3 Bed handle w/Pi cam mount

thingiverse

I created a bed handle with a camera mount for my Ender 3 printer by merging two separate designs together. I liked the low-poly handle made by saamirt and the swivel camera mount from jmillerfo, so I combined them in tinkercad to create a single piece. The result was a functional handle that worked perfectly, but it had one issue - the camera cable kept getting tangled with the bed. To fix this problem, I modified the design by cutting off the side of the handle that housed the Pi camera mount and repurposed it as a 2020 rail mount instead. I've included the stl files for both the combined bed handle and the standalone v slot rail version for anyone who wants to try out the design. To secure the pi camera to the post, I used a thin piece of filament as a pin, which allowed the camera to tilt and swivel smoothly. Additionally, I enlarged the hole for the camera lens and added a small slot in the case backing to give the cable room to bend and exit from the bottom.
