quick release for LiftPod

prusaprinters

This is a quick release for the LiftPod. With a printed spring it snaps in quickly and securely, also you can rotate the LiftPod after it snaps in place. Even if you pull on the camera or the stand it won't fall down.  However if you want to use the LiftPod with this quick release, you need this baseplate.  Here you can see the quick release in action:          When you print the parts, the base and the slider need to be printed with support. First put the slider in the base and then you can put the spring in place like shown on this picture. I recommend printing the spring using PETG but PLA works as well.The holes in the base are for M6 socket head screws (DIN-EN-ISO 4762 former DIN 912).The holes have a distance of 50 mm in case you want to attach it somewhere. You can find my solution for a monitor here, but it will only fit on that specific model. That's why I uploaded it seperately.
