Having a 3D printer without a camera is like driving at night without lights. I decided to create a base that doesn't require any alteration to the MK4 and can also serve as a starting point for others to create their own camera support.
What you need
- PETG filament (PLA is a good replacement)
- One M3x25 screw
- One M3x18 screw
- One M3 nut
- A Logitech C270 or C310 webcam
Printing Instructions
- Filament used: Prusament PETG
- Nozzle: 0.4
- Layer height: 0.2
x-axis-base-v1_short:
4 perimeters, 5 bottom solid layers.
camera-arm-v1:
3 perimeters, 5 bottom solid layers, support enforcers (see image).
cable-clamp-v1:
3 perimeters, 5 bottom solid layers.
FYI: These parameters are the ones I prefer, but the ones that come by default still work perfectly.
Assembly:
- Screw the camera to the arm using the M3x25 screw, no nut is needed on the other end. Do not over-tighten.
- Guide the cable through the rear slot of the arm and slide a couple of c-clamps to secure the cable.
- Attach the base to the arm using the M3x18 screw and nut.
- Place it on the printer as shown in the photos, the base should snugly fit to the x axis idler (right side).
- Adjust the camera's framing and gently tighten the screws.
- Attach the last c-clamp to the base.
- Enjoy!
