This is nothing more than a remix of @dereksrose's fine Camera Mount remix - except with an added support leg!  The added support leg not only puts less stress on the extended arm but also reduces the wobble as the printer is printing.

There are two sizes: a 7" and 9" length.

This was originally designed for the Logitech C920/922 Camera but theoretically ANY camera with a screw in base should work.  For those who may be interested, the Logitech takes a ¼"-20 screw so you can use that as your baseline.  Ideally, the screw should probably be a ½" in length but as you can see above mine was a bit longer (about ¾" length) so I had to add some extra washers as “spacers” to secure it properly.

The uploaded gcode files use Prusament PLA and Prusament PETG filament settings for those that want to print right away.  The gcode files use 15% infill.

NOTE #1:  You do not need any supports if you're using the .3mf file in your slicer.

NOTE #2:  I did add a small piece of double-sided tape on the inside of the top clamp where it meets the top of the Y-Axis brace.  Without it, the snaps were just a tad too high and there was some play when it was snapped on.  By adding the 1mm thick tape that was just enough to sturdily secure it.   In the picture above, you can see the white tape where the support meets the top of the Y-Axis to see what I'm talking about.
