Remix of the Y-axis link from: https://www.printables.com/model/310284-ender-3-s1-cable-chain

Hardware needed:

  • LED light strip (if using the LED light model)
  • M3 x 6mm screw (optional, but strongly recommended)

Designed to create timelapses, for the most part, as the led mounted strip light is not too harsh, to avoid over exposure, as well as to have the camera follow the top layer progress. 

Can be used as a supplemental light in addition to having a light bar. The camera mounted spot light greatly reduces the shadows from the extruder. 

The LED mount will roughly fit 2 strips of light at 150mm x 8mm each. I've used COB led strip from Amazon (see image with dimensions).

I've also patched up the original model and added a screw hole that aligns with an existing hole on the X-axis gantry, using an M3 x 6mm screw will secure the mount so it doesn't wobble, especially if using it without the cable chain.

Includes 4 models:

  • Camera Mount with LED light and cable chain link
  • Camera Mount with LED light (no cable chain link)
  • Camera Mount with cable chain link (no LED light)
  • Camera Mount (no LED light or cable chain link)

All models should be printed with supports.
