Endoscope (8MM) bracket for Ender 3

Quick and simple bracket to mount an endoscope to your nozzle area. This should fit any 40mm fan as it mounts to the bottom. It is designed for an Ender3 (v1) and tested on a Noctua NF-A4x20 mounted directly where the original fan used to be. The bracket goes further away and down to try and get a decent angle and work within the focal range of the scope while still being close.

I used the existing fan screws (you may need longer screws if they barely fit as is) and an M3x12 screw with an M3 nut to connect the two parts.

My scope measured at 8.12mm wide (sold as an 8mm scope). It is a little tight but plenty of room to twist to the desired level before tightening where it should stay put.

Notes:

Use tree supports on the Scope Support with the cylinder upright and the bracket at the top. The holes don't need supports, only the 90 degree arms. I made a second version that does not require supports to provide a choice.
