This is a simple enclosure for a Raspberry Pi camera module v2, the least expensive camera, to mount at bed level on a Creality printer.  I use it on my Creality Ender 3 Pro - just loosen the front plate on an aluminum channel and slide the camera mount into place.  May be rotated and tilted by hand after mounting.  The tolerances for the screw threads are already included so no slicing adjustments should be needed.

Layer height used was 0.2mm.

A single M2.5 x 20mm screw and matching nut was used to attach the camera enclosure to the camera post.

I've included Step files for the camera enclosure and covers section so that anyone that wants to revision this to use a different camera may easily do so.
