I saw a bunch of mounts for a C270 type of camera for my Prusa i3 MK3S but I had bought a C525. I didn't realize it at the time but the C270 has a screw that allows you to remove the folding mount so you can use the hinge to mount it to all the 3D printed mounts available.

I ended up messing up the original folding mount for my C525 but found out you can remove the entire lower base of the folding mount by popping off the plastic cover and removing the center screw.

I made this mount in Fusion 360 that fits in the spindle and can be screwed in but has a hinge that can fit the C270 mounts out there.

I am also including the Fusion 360 project file here with history in case someone feels like modifying it.

One final thing to note. When I printed this in PETG with .20 layer height, it fit everything perfectly. However when I printed it in PLA with a .10 layer height the spindle wouldn't fit. I'm not sure why that happened.

Anyway, I hope someone finds this useful.
