Remix of the original to use plastic pin mounts in place of screws and make the base plate shorter so it only covers 2 holes in the Ikea Plasta enclosure. 

This design also uses rectangular magnets, with an additional overlapping frame around the pivot plate bracket to help the camera stay square/level.

    • Print Settings:
      • Vertical shells → Permimeters: 4 (to make pins solid)
      • Quality → Detect thin walls

    • Supports: Everywhere as I couldn't find a good way to place this on the bed)

Hardware
