This is a quick GoPro mount for a 2020 or 2040 extrusion, as used on many 3D printers.  It prints at a 45-degree angle to give it a little extra strength.  If you're left-handed, you may want to mirror this in your slicer so the screw goes in on the left-hand side.

You need an M5 nut. My nut was 7.8mm, measuring flat-edge-to-opposite-flat-edge.  If yours is different then you can adjust it in the Fusion 360 file in the "nutWidth" variable (add about 0.1mm to give it a little bit of clearance). The captive nut is supposed to be a tight fit.  I got mine in by attaching a screw to it, and using the screw as a handle to push it in.  You can also use an M5 heat-set-insert soldering iron tip to heat up the nut and melt it into place.

Use two M3x12 screws and M3 t-nuts to attach to your printer's frame.
