Ender 3 / Ender 3 Pro X-Axis Cover Cap Sprite Cable + PiCam / C270

The original cover cap worked well to keep the Sprite cable out of the way, however I wasn't thrilled with the logo and it blocked the use of the X cover clip-over PiCam holder I had been using prior to this last round of upgrades. 

I remixed the cover cap to remove the logo, and add a PiCam mounting arm. I also remixed the PiCam-v1 housing I was using to clear the new mounting.

2024-01-02: Added several designs that work with a Logitech C270 camera. These are “low” mount only versions at this time.

PiCam non-printed materials used:

• 1x M3x12 screw (PiCam holder mounting)
• 1x M3 bolt (PiCam holder mounting)
• 1x PiCam v1

C270 non-printed materials used:

• 1x M3x16 to M3x25 screw
• Logitech C270
• Optional: https://www.printables.com/model/302516-logitec-c270-focus-adjustment

C270 adjustable arms also require:

• M3x8 screws
• M3 bolts

There is some allowance for tolerance in the screw holes and sizing, however this is best printed on a well-adjusted, accurate device.

Models print best as-oriented when imported, with organic supports enabled for the cap to hold the uppermost bridging section. I used PETG with 15% gyroid infill and 0.16mm layer height.

Changed the X Cover Cap:

• Removed Prusa MK4 mount end
• Merged remaining 80mm with X Cover Cap for solid mount
• Trimmed down and added 10mm connection point for adjustable mount
