In my never ending search for things to print to add to my printer I needed a case/mount for my Pi Cam. This was quite difficult as I could not find anything pre-made (like how there are millions of things for the Ender3). I had to combine 3 different things from Thingiverse to be able to do this. In addition to using 3 different things, I had to modify a couple of the pieces (more detail below). For the individual parts I left the original names the same. I want the original creators to get the credit for what they built. Below are the links to each thing I used and the parts from each thing that was used.

I would also like to thank Aaron Shour who I met on one of the Facebook 3D groups for first modifying the clamp that attaches to the printer, and helped me through some printing issues.

Marble Post-Printing =============

Assembly

Assemble as shown. I added a bolt between the case back and back plate to allow for the heat sinks that stick out a little from the case back.

How I Designed This ===================

My design Remix

  • First I needed a part that connected to my printer, I used the BIQU_BX_Base.stl but the rest of the parts from this thing did not work for the Pi Cam I had. So I cut off the 3x connector part of Rotation_Arm_v3 and replaced the connector on BIQU_BX_Base.stl.
  • I modified Pi\_Camera\_case\_back\_with\_IR\_LED\_Scaled\_v4.stl out of necessity. The first Pi Cam I got the IR blasters over heated and stopped working. So, I made openings in the back to allow for heat sinks.
