RPi camera for OctoPrint with easy focus and M12 changeable lens

The 'standard' Raspberry Pi camera is difficult / impossible to focus.  Thought I would share a nice upgrade that is easy to focus down to just a few inches.

RPi Camera, close focus, interchangeable lenses

I printed this case with only minor mods for the ribbon cable.

For the original RPI camera, there is a tool you can print to be able to change focus.  It's around here somewhere.  But cool upgrade there.

Does it work well?  I had a similar model but the ribbon cable topped working at a month.
