Description
NOTE: Height of stand is not adjustable, Also please note that the
top part just below the actual camera is the stock stand provided by Foscam. I am attaching to that stand, not directly to the camera.
The stand was designed for using the camera to stream and record
prints for my Makergear M2. Total height of the stand without the
camera and its mount is about 13 inches. Also the Velcro straps in
the picture are temporary until I get the nuts and bolts to mount it
properly.
I used PLA printed at 50% in-fill. Came out very sturdy but about a
16 hour print job. So you can probably go much lower on the in-fill.
I chose to use the stand rather than mount it on the printer due to
the camera being so bulky, but it is an HD camera and I wanted to
use it. So the stand makes it easy to place it where I want it when I
need it and to get it out of the way when not in use.
I used hobby grade "Thick" super glue to permanently join the two
pieces of the stand to each other.
You can usually catch my stream at:

Still working on increasing the frame rate on it.
