This is a remix of the [**Monoprice Select Mini camera mount**](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3429679) by [**mspieth**](https://www.thingiverse.com/mspieth/designs).
I have an older Logitech "QuickCam Deluxe for Notebooks", and it uses a fairly unusual clipping mechanism to secure itself to a laptop screen. Previously, I'd cobbled together a little camera base for the webcam using some Lego pieces, and found it quite versatile. But as I recently got my Monoprice Select Mini back up and running, I decided I wanted to re-mount the webcam to the Y-Axis traveling printing surface, for better timelapses and more useful monitoring of print quality.
I imported mspieth's MPSM Camera Mount bracket into SketchUp and retraced the mounting portion, then created a flat 64mmx48mm platform, which corresponds to the dimensions of a 6x8 Lego plate.
I used some flexible "Lego Compatible Brick Tape" to add the 'studs' to the plate once it was printed. Such tape can be found [at many retailers](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=lego+block+tape "Amazon, for example...").
The end result is a highly adaptable extension platform, attached to the printing bed, that allows me to utilize lego-compatible connectors to mount my webcam, lights, or whatever else I might desire to the front of the print bed.
