Basic bracket to mount a Blink Outdoor 4 Camera (and probably other Blink Outdoor Cameras) on to a post, beam, rafter, etc. using cable ties, velcro straps, string, ribbon, wire, or whatever else you have lying around (I used “reusable velcro cable ties” from AliExpress). Slots to allow for mounting to vertical or horizontal surfaces. 

I also drilled a hole in the model and pushed in a threaded insert to screw the camera base to the mount, although this probably isn't necessary, since it wasn't going to fall out (I just had the inserts sitting on the bench in front of my printer). Even if you wanted to, you could probably just screw directly into the mount, and not worry about the insert.

Print in a material most suitable for where you are mounting it and for how long. If it is inside somewhere, or out of direct sunlight then PLA/PETG/ABS are all probably fine. If you are planning to leave it long-term outside in direct sunlight, then ASA might be the go. For temporary use, it probably isn't going to matter what filament you use, and this would be a great use for that roll of whatever that has been sitting around in your filament stash for years but only has a few metres left on the spool.

I printed it standing on its bottom edge (standing vertically off the bed), with supports.
