Design

After printing the standard camera mount arms for my Printer-Box enclosure designed by [Printer Box] and a camera housing for Pi Camera 3 by Extra Fox I realized that I don't like the resulting print area angle.

Unfortunately the standard mount arms are squared, and cannot be rotated once assembled, so I decided to design my own arms in OpenSCAD.

There are three types of arms in the project - one straight (mounting axes parallel) and two crossed (mounting axes perpendicular + same mirrored).

You may want to split the STL into three parts and print only those you deem necessary. Arm length is ~21mm by default, but can be adjusted in the SCAD file as needed. BOSL2 library is needed for any modifications.

Printing

I used Prusament Orange PETG with “0.2mm QUALITY” preset. Consider lowering the temperature to decrease warping in layers closest to build plate.

Assembly

Arms are linked together using M3x8 bolts and M3 hex nuts. I've used M3x12 for attaching to the original rail holder and camera housing.
