Raspberry Pi Camera V2.1 Lens Adjustment Spanner

thingiverse

This tool is inspired by Kaadesign's Lens Wench, Thing ID 1557754. My design caters specifically to the Raspberry Pi Camera V2.1, and printing two of them offers a convenient solution: an 8mm socket to secure the lens base on one end and adjust the lens at the other. The revised version features a deliberate gap beneath the square end, accommodating the 7mm ribbon cable emanating from the 8mm square base. I discovered that this Lens Wench tool can be utilized to adjust even the V1.3 camera lens. Print Settings: Printer: Felix 3.1 Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.1 Infill: 50%+ Notes: This object was sliced using Simplify3D and took approximately 8 minutes to print. The Felix printer excelled in producing fine details, and the tool functioned flawlessly upon completion. To facilitate printing, I employed a 4-ring brim on the virtually printed socket lens wrench. This ingenious tool allowed me to adjust a previously placed lens within a waterproof case. Design Process: I utilized Thing ID 1557754's STL file as a template and redrew the tool using Design Spark Mechanical V2.
