Octoprint Camera arm
Description
This is a segmented arm for mounting an octoprint camera on a 3-d printer. It requires a c-clamp (Gimiton C-Clamp Camera Mount Clamp Clip Aluminum Heavy Duty C Clamp U Clip Bracket for Photo Studio Light Stand Camera Flash). I purchased the c-clamp from Amazon.com (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B4Z9WWK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). You use a paper clip to clip the webcam onto the last segment of the arm (CameraMountPlate.stl). You need to print two or more copies of each arm segment (cameramountart.stl, and cameramountarm_twisted.stl), depending on how far you want the arm to reach, and one piece each of the remainder parts. The screws used to hold the segments together can be anything from #8 to 1/4 inch in diameter. But if you use #6 screws then you need a washer for each screw to prevent the screw head from going thru the holes. The screw for mounting the base piece to the c-clamp is #6, 3/4 inch long because there is a nut socket there that fit a #6. I mounted it on my Original Prusa i3 MK3 printer, but it should work with any printer or any thing with a place for mounting a c-clamp...
