PvC Printer Enclosure Internal Webcam Mount

thingiverse

This is a Platform that can be slid onto a Half inch PVC Pipe for you to place your webcam on so that it can be mounted Inside your 3D printer Enclosure. I built some enclosures for my Ender 5 Plus and Ender 3 using half inch PVC pipe and some 3 way joints to make the frame with some Clear Vinyl for the "enclosure" it's self the thing is the enclosure being larger than the printers left no room on my desk for the boxes I had my webcams sitting on aimed at them for Octoprint, Plus the vinyle would distort the image a bit.... So after some searching i found Ronthomps Webcam mount and loaded it through tinkercad to make it Solid except for a few openings to allow the webcams cord to feed through. I repurposed it to work as a little platform to sit your webcam on in the corner of your enclosure aimed at your print bed. The only thing you will need is some electrical tape, painters tape, etc to wrap on the pvc pipe just below the mount so it can not slide down. **I've included 2 different versions in the download 1 with just the opening across the back for the webcams USB cord to be fed through and 1 with and additional 3 Holes in the "solid" parts so that depending on where your positioning the camera on the platform the wire for your webcam can be fed through or zip tied to the side to keep it out of the way. ** If you enjoy this remix a Follow on my Instagram Twitter , Twitch and or a Subscribe to my youtube channel helps me out alot and is always greatly Appreciated :) Twitch.tv/savag3calib3r Youtube.com/savag3calib3r Twitter.com/savagecalibers Instagram.com/savag3calib3r ChangeLog: 9/12/2020 at 3:59 AM Est.: after printing the final version I realized that Ronthomp did not measure his model for 1/2 inch PVC at all and just posted it as such because of this the Hole for the PVC to slide into was too small. I have updated the Files with 2 Of the exact same mounts only I have further altered Ronthomps original model to have the hole be wide enough for half inch PVC. The fit is now slightly larger than the half inch PVC just enough to be loose enough for sliding on and off but still narrow enough that you could do a thin wrap of electrical tape on the PVC where you want it and simply slide the mount over the electrical tape to hold it snug to the pipe this should allow for easier use.
