Moment lens mount for laptop webcam by pjkeelinglab

This allows you to mount Moment smartphone lenses on the bezel of your laptop to align with the webcam. With the massive increase in zoom and other web video communications, I thought this would be useful. I teach at a university on Zoom and wanted to show the students physical objects. With the webcam alone this was pretty underwhelming, so I made this mount and now can slide whichever moment lens I need over the camera with a flick of the wrist. I have 2-3 lenses hanging on the bezel ready to go - mostly using the macro but also the fisheye for wide FOV. This file has two mounts for common Apple computers, one for mid-2015 Macbook Pro and one for a 2018 Macbook Pro. You can re-jig it easily to fit your computer by changing only the thickness and distance from the centre of the hole to the inside of the top. I print this in TPU and find the elastic properties are perfect for a snug fit. For the actual mount part, I remixed and partly filled in an excellent design part from Knerdler (thing:3344781), but I can't seem to link it here officially.
