Ender 3 V3 SE Nozzle Camera Mount (W202012HD Module)

This is a two-piece nozzle camera mount designed for the Ender 3 V3 SE utilizing the W202012HD camera module. It attaches directly to the front of the extruder shield for a close-up view of your print nozzle. I hooked mine up to a Raspberry Pi so I can monitor and stream print feeds from anywhere via my website, it has quickly become my favorite printer mod! I currently don't have an integrated cable guide, as my printer is in an enclosure and I use a taped USB extension overhead to keep the cord elevated away from the print bed. Hardware Requirements - 2 x M3 x 10mm screws (flat head or cross/Phillips head) to replace the stock screws on the extruder shield.

- 1x M5 x 20mm screw with lock nut to attach the camera mount to the base and keep it securely in place.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS & DISCLAIMERS - LED Wiring Notice: - The W202012HD module shares a single resistor for all three onboard LEDs.

- Do NOT solder only one LED per side: without all three LEDs in circuit to share the current, single LEDs will burn out immediately (learned this the hard way before tracing the PCB!).

- Heat Exposure & Temperature Testing: - I attached a temperature sensor to the side of my extruder shield and completed several prints with PETG to test thermal effects on the module.

- Note: While it hasn't damaged mine and I feel confident keeping it installed long-term, I cannot guarantee heat won't affect or damage your specific camera module. Monitor your hardware during initial prints!

- Clearance Disclaimer: - Use at your own discretion.

- This design has been thoroughly checked to clear the stock Ender 3 V3 SE printer frame components.

- Caution with tall/multi-part prints: I cannot guarantee clearance against printed parts if you are printing tall multi-part setups across the bed or experimenting with non-planar 3D printing. Always double-check your preview and clearance before running a print!

Shoutout to @gbgarage_582100 for the module mount design, although if you're using LEDs, you can omit the front lid.
