Webcam Mount (Remix) for TeachingTech's "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse"

thingiverse

[This is for a neat little webcam that's only $4.95 on Amazon, with free shipping! It's compatible with Octoprint / Octolapse right out of the box.](https://amzn.to/39fBq7W) TeachingTech provides two choices of camera mount tip for the business end of his "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse." One mount tip is for a specific (rather expensive) webcam he uses, a model named HXSJ_S70 (see his YouTube video for more). The other is a generic mount that offers multiple ways to attach a garden variety of webcams. And he made the geometry available so remixes could be done. This is a remix mount tip (provided in both "tall" and "short" versions) that supports an extremely affordable, off-name brand basic webcam, that I [bought on Amazon for $4.95 (and with free shipping)](https://amzn.to/39fBq7W), and it so happens to work "out of the box" with Octoprint / Octolapse. Note: there may be (likely are) other cheap webcams that have the same "swivel+fold" base and that this remix would fit. See my two videos (above) for more detail. NOTE: The key "tube" area of the mount tip, with the hole for the included brass fitting, is 20mm long. Also note: if you happen to have a Snapmaker 2 with enclosure, be sure to check out my [other remix item for the other end of TeachingTech's "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse," which is the base](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4716778), and lets you make use of the "rails" of the Snapmaker 2 enclosure to "snap in" a base for the flexible webcam holder — either up above (upper rail looking down) or down below (lower rail, rising up to look across). https://youtu.be/ZzTq6AVCHa4 https://youtu.be/QQ_SlQb5dLs Note: all Amazon urls are affiliate links.
