			Once the camera has been connected & enabled the "raspistill" library, which should already be installed, is ready to start capturing photos. I created some simple bash script to capture some photos and videos, but you can generally run this from the command line by typing "raspistill -o image_title.jpeg". Refer to documentation from the previously mentioned link for more details.

I worked on designing a handle to hold the assembly. While conceptually the design was perfect, I made an error on the inner diameter dimension of the handle.

	Instead of using the outside diameter of the conduit, which was intended to slide in the handle, I set the handle inner dimension to the conduit inner dimension. The print ([[File: WeldingGrip.fcstd]]) worked, but we had to use the heat gun to soften the plastic enough to force the conduit down the handle slot. Since the clearance was so tight, I also had to abandon the bottom entry for the power wire because the heat gun softening used to create space for the conduit made me lose the inner channel for the wire to be fed through. Instead I just drilled a new hole above the side mounted set screw for the wire to enter and be compressed between the conduit and inner handle wall.		Instead of using the outside diameter of the conduit (18 mm), which was intended to slide in the printed handle, I set the handle inner dimension to the conduit inner dimension (15.75 mm). The print ([[File: WeldingGrip.fcstd]]) worked, but we had to use the heat gun to soften the plastic enough to force the conduit down the handle slot. Since the clearance was so tight, I also had to abandon the bottom entry for the power wire because the heat gun softening used to create space for the conduit made me lose the inner channel for the wire to be fed through. Instead I just drilled a new hole above the side mounted set screw for the wire to enter and be compressed between the conduit and inner handle wall. This should be recreated to have the slot inner diameter be 18 mm.
