Anet A8 3D-Touch Mount

It was remixed because I prefer putting the BLTouch near my nozzle for better calibration and making the filament tube easier to access. This remix is to respect the BLTouch's manual by covering the extruder gear. BLTouch's manual requires: - 15mm distance from the heatblock - 8.3mm above the nozzle M280 P0 S10; pushes the pin down M280 P0 S90; pulls the pin up define X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -28 // X offset: -left +right [of the nozzle] define Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER +14 // Y offset: -front +behind [the nozzle] define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER 0 // Z offset: -below +above [the nozzle] define LEFT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 40 //X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER define RIGHT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 180 define FRONT_PROBE_BED_POSITION 45 define BACK_PROBE_BED_POSITION 175 Z-Offset Instructions: 1.
