Hey Makers !
Looking for an easy and affordable way to mount a plug-and-play camera on your Prusa Core One? If, like me, you're not yet comfortable with ESP32, OctoPrint, and other advanced setups, I’ve got a simple solution for you!
While searching for the best camera, I came across a post praising the image quality of the TP-Link Tapo C110 for 3D printer monitoring. So, I bought one and started exploring the best way to mount it inside the printer. I tested corner mounts like most designs out there, but they didn’t fit well or weren’t secure enough. Then I had an idea—why not attach it to the metal bar? I tested different positions—above, below—and finally settled on mounting it on top, slightly inclined for the best view.
For my setup, I printed the mount in PETG (I’m still new to 3D printing) with 25% infill and supports.
Also, please be kind with my Fusion 360 design—these are some of my very first models!
I hope you like it! 😊
