Raspberry Pi 3 outdoor camera

pinshape

I was searching for a rugged weather-resistant case that could adapt to various Raspberry Pi camera projects. I found this glass lens online, and it seems like just what I need: http://www.dx.com/p/glass-lens-for-flashlights-33mm-10-pack-5644. To secure the lens in place, I require a 5mm heat-set threaded insert, which can be purchased from McMaster: http://www.mcmaster.com/#94180a361/=14kc8i8. An M5x12mm socket head bolt and a BEC from Adafruit will also come in handy: https://www.adafruit.com/products/1385 and https://www.adafruit.com/product/1390. I've opted to use just the plug and some heat shrink instead of the shell for my Raspberry Pi camera project. The SDPlug is printed using ninjaflex with 25% fill. Updates: 10/13/2016 - Fixed pivot on Post.stl 10/14/2016 - Added ball and socket swivel mount to the design 10/22/2016 - Linked BEC and BEC cover for easier assembly 10/24/2016 - Adjusted front shell to make micro USB connection more accessible during assembly 11/4/2016 - Major overhaul to enhance disassembly and repair capabilities. I've added a snap-on front shell, snap-on camera mount that can be refilled, allowing for easy changes in camera orientation. A rubber cable grommet has been incorporated into the design. 11/5/2016 - Adjusted post size for camera mount for optimal performance
