My two printers are on a metal shelf that does not have a lot of mounting points for cameras, so I had a metal shelf and leftovers magnets for MK3s extruder vizualiser, just mix the two together and that's it. 

The "Magnet holder Base" part goes in the “profile”, the corner of the shelf and sticks with the magnets, enough to hold a camera like the BIG ESP32-S3-EYE with his box. You can move the holder as you wish yo get the perfect angle.

You will infortunetaly need some hardware:

  • 1x M3 12mm screw
  • 1x M3 nut or nyloc nut (as you wish, both works)
  • 4x 8x3mm neodymium magnets (Same as the ones used for an MK3S extruder visualiser)

Printing parameters:

  • 0.2mm Layer Height
  • 2 Walls
  • 15% infill
  • Support everywhere

Once you printed everything, removed the supports and if your printer is well tuned, you will not need glue to hold the magnet in place, just press them in the part with the help of a flat surface (like a table). 

The same for the M3 nut, but the same technique as Prusa (screw pull).

After that, put the two pieces together, tight the screw as you feel and your finished!

 

Im planing to do a modular system with different arm length, junction and base with more magnet for more weight and lever force.

Leave a like if you liked the model :)
