Description
PDFThis is a mounting bracket for attaching a camera to the bed of your AnkerMake M5C/M5.
It has a space for the metal bracket for a Wyze Cam V3, but the head can be modified to fit other cameras. I used Tinkercad.com to modify this design, and made the mount to fit the Wyze metal bracket.
The original flexed when the bed stopped and started, which gave a very jerky image. This has three strengthening ribs that provide a perfectly stable platform
As recommended by ThisOne, this is best printed in PETG or other high temperature resistant material.
Here is a video created using my build.

Model origin
The author remixed this model.
Differences of the remix compared to the original
This model has a fixed head, specifically for a Wyze Cam V3, but that can be modified using a product such as Tinkercad.com, which is how I made mine.
It has three lightweight but stiff strengthening ribs preventing the camera block from flexing on the long arm when the build plate stops and starts, which I found the original did.
It is thicker at the build plate end to ensure that the build plate firmly grips the bracket between itself and the build plate supports. The original one was a millimetre or two too thin, and I found it needed washers above and below to stop it dropping too low and catching on the base plate of the printer.
