Desk Vertical Camera Mount

I designed this vertical camera mount to comfortably and securely record top-down shots from a shelf, capturing the entire table and everything I'm working on — mainly tutorial videos on how to assemble my 3D models.

The mount offers a wide range of vertical tilt adjustment, with two main positions: forward-facing and straight down, though the angle can be finely tuned within that range. I opted for a custom locking mechanism to prevent the camera from tilting or shifting unintentionally after setting the frame. Once tightened, the camera position stays completely stable.

Additionally, the screw uses a dual-nut system to lock it further in place and increase the overall rigidity of the mount. TPU pads can optionally be printed and added to improve surface grip between clamped parts, but the system works well even without them.

The entire mount prints as a single piece, except for the screws and a small locking cap, which are printed separately. 

The assembly is very straightforward — so simple, in fact, that I didn’t find it necessary to create an instruction manual.
