Top Mount for http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:52584 Hack Oldham needed a top plate to secure the sixth camera for the sphere mount, and I agreed to design and make it. The mount holds securely, despite the intentional gap inside in case something drops onto the enclosure. This item is my original work; the original mount is not mine. Print Settings Printer Brand: CEL Printer: Robox Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: medium to fine. Draft would be too rough for this purpose. Infill: 40-50% for flexibility and damage resistance, hence the gap inside. Notes: Use as fine a print as you can manage; draft is not recommended. Post-Printing Does and Do Not's Use this add-on to secure/protect the sixth camera. Some clean-up required depending on how fine a print you are making (sandpaper; use a mask to protect your lungs!). Do not pad the inside of the enclosure (trust me, the flex will help protect the camera if the mount gets dropped). How I Designed This Rhinoceros 5 and lots of lines. I spent an hour tracing the original designs' edges to get a basic guide of the original sphere blocks' mounting point, before using the guides to 'cut' into a basic square object. Once I was happy with where the mounting clips would go, I then used the GoPro footprint model to cut further gaps into the block that would accommodate the camera.
