Positioning arm for raspberry pi zero camera or similar

Positioning arm for raspberry pi zero camera or similar

Description

A simple positioning arm that allows you to mount a raspberry pi zero and fix it firmly in exactly the right place - designed for filming timelapse and using to remotely observe machines. To build it you'll need a top pin - either the ring style (plus mounting ring) which allows rotation or a wall mounted top pin. The arms are printed in two pieces that click together - a drop of glue would provide an even firm connection if required. A 40mm M6 bolt (6 mm diameter) will hold the arm onto the top pin or to another arm - as many arms as required can be chained together. The final piece is the camera platform which is sized to allow you to attach the 'official raspberry pi zero case' and connects with the same M6 bolt. The tolerances are tight to avoid any wobble when fixed, they may require a quick brush with a small file when printed and M6 bolts will probably need to be screwed through so if you want an easier fit clean with a file or drill. I taped my pi to the flat panel on the camera plate, elastic bands should work well also.
