Hello, what part of the printer do you have this attached to? I'm trying to see if this will work for my Kobra 3 as well. I havent found any blink mounts for the K3 and the regular camera just doesnt do it for me.

Hi Imbatman10, It mounts through the two holes that are used to mount the screen. Looking at the Kobra 3, I don't think this will be compatible with it. Sorry!

Darn, thanks for checking and the response. Back to the drawing board. I need to learn how to create such things on my own πŸ˜‚

Hi MR_SHARK, I'm curious about your choice of using the Blink camera (and therefore USB) instead of a Raspberry Pi camera with its direct connector. Could you share your thoughts on this decision? I'm interested in understanding the advantages you found with the Blink camera for this setup.

Additionally, I noticed you mounted the camera in that particular location. Could you elaborate on why you chose to mount it there and why you didn't remove the printer's screen? I'm intrigued by your design choices and would love to learn more about your reasoning behind them.

Thanks in advance for sharing your insights!

Hi Giuseppelg, The main reason I wanted to use the Blink was because I use the Blink infrastructure around my house and use the app on my phone already. It also has built in night vision so I don't need a light on my print bed nor a more expensive webcam that uses this. When I first set it up, I didn't have Octoprint setup yet either.

For position I originally chose to mount it above the bed next to the filament spool but found I couldn't easily see the first few layers and monitor for delamination. I picked the spot next to the screen as I could see the first few layers and use the holes already drilled and tapped for the screen. I don't see any benefit to removing the printers screen.

Thanks for the questions!
