I needed a method of connecting a "webcam" to my printer for remote monitoring from around the house via Octoprint.

So, this comes in a couple pieces:

  • A connector that snaps to the 30x30 extrusion frame (Y-axis on Prusa, and possibly other printers)
  • A "knob" that connects to the above snap-on connector and starts the "chain" of knobs and sockets
  • A number of "links" (knob/socket connectors)
  • A socket camera mount (uses the standard 1/4" bolt connector)
    NOTE: The camera connector is printed plastic. Do not overtighten or it will break off in your camera.

Print instructions

Category: 3D Printer Accessories Print Settings

Printer Brand: Prusa
Printer: I3 MK3S
Rafts: No
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.1 mm
Infill: 15% gyroid
Filament: Prusament PETG Orange
Notes:

In order to increase the rigidity of the parts, I increased the number of walls to 4.

Also, when printing the snap-mount, I used 0.2mm layer height.
