Elgato mic arm microscope holder

Simple mount allowing you to attach microscope to Elgato mic arm.

Holder can work with multiple diameters:

• 50 mm - put optics through top of holder, screws are optionally needed just for extra security, but it has strong fit even without them.
   
• 40 mm - put optics through bottom of holder. It will hold also without screws, but optics doesn't have strong fit there and by hitting it from bottom you could release it. I recommend add thread inserts into 3 prepared holes (3x 120 degrees) and lock microscope with 3 screws.
   
• < 40 mm - put optics through bottom of holder. It will probably not hold well anymore and it must be secured with 3 screws.

I strongly recommend to use plastic screws to prevent scratches on the casing of your microscope (learned hard way :P). Considering their function and load plastic will be more than sufficient, no need for metal screws.

Parts to buy (not necessary for diameter 50 mm)

• 3x Thread inserts (prepared hole is 5 mm diameter)
• 3x Screws

Print instructions

I printed it from PETG with 30% filling. Snug supports are necessary, I configured overhang threshold to 35 degrees, layer height 0.1 mm.
