Prusa MK3 GoPro Mount

Version 5 has been uploaded, featuring an added brace from the base to the GoPro mount for enhanced stability. This is a specially designed mount for Original Prusa i3 MK3 3D Printers that is compatible with GoPros. Watch a YouTube video on my channel to see the mount's creation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI6vQh1Lm44 The design was created using Fusion 360 and includes a built-in cable management system for USB power cables typically used with GoPro cameras. To install, remove the removable build plate from the MK3 heat bed, then take out the front-left corner screw (or the front-right one if you're printing this in mirrored form) along with the metal spacer between the heatbed and y-carriage. After cleaning up a bit of drooping inside the part (see Post-printing), test fit the part on the Y-carriage. Depending on your extrusion settings and filament, you might need to use sandpaper to slightly smooth out the top portion of the part that will be under the heatbed. Then, push the metal spacer through the hole in the mount, ensuring it's flush against the top of the printed part. Secure it with the screw you removed earlier. After attaching a GoPro or another camera to the mount, secure the power cable in place using the fixtures provided. Be careful not to damage the cable if your cable is wider than the one used as reference. If necessary, use zip-ties to keep the cable in place - one on the bend of the arm and another on the leftmost GoPro mount upright.
