Description
I designed this because I wanted to use a Unifi Instant as a baby monitor for when we're out or don't have our traditional wireless one with us. I wanted something that would provide a more robust attachment to the curtain rod to get good visibility into the room.
The mount base it for the Unifi Instant camera plastic base which screws directly into the plastic. The two piece design is sized for a 33mm curtain rod. It uses two M3 heat-set inserts from CNC Kitchen. Clearance is for cap head screw with a maximum thread length of 9mm. The model can be easily adjusted if other sizes were desired.
It's a little fiddly to mount, and I used some additional rubber gasket material to ensure a good fit on the rid. Once it was mounted though it's been solid, including open and closing the curtain daily.
It's designed to print without support in the orientations indicated in the 3mf.
