Webcam Mount (Remix) for TeachingTech's "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse"

Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4716743.

This is for a neat little webcam that's only $4.95 on Amazon, with free shipping! It's compatible with Octoprint / Octolapse right out of the box.

TeachingTech provides two choices of camera mount tip for the business end of his "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse." One mount tip is for a specific (rather expensive) webcam he uses, a model named HXSJ_S70 (see his YouTube video for more). The other is a generic mount that offers multiple ways to attach a garden variety of webcams. And he made the geometry available so remixes could be done.

This is a remix mount tip (provided in both "tall" and "short" versions) that supports an extremely affordable, off-name brand basic webcam, that I bought on Amazon for $4.95 (and with free shipping), and it so happens to work "out of the box" with Octoprint / Octolapse.

Note: there may be (likely are) other cheap webcams that have the same "swivel+fold" base and that this remix would fit. See my two videos (above) for more detail.

NOTE: The key "tube" area of the mount tip, with the hole for the included brass fitting, is 20mm long.

Also note: if you happen to have a Snapmaker 2 with enclosure, be sure to check out my other remix item for the other end of TeachingTech's "Flexible webcam mount for Octolapse," which is the base, and lets you make use of the "rails" of the Snapmaker 2 enclosure to "snap in" a base for the flexible webcam holder — either up above (upper rail looking down) or down below (lower rail, rising up to look across).
