BLTouch gauge block helps set 8.3mm height from the nozzle. Newer Smart BL Touch has 8.5mm distance, from shoulder to tip of probe. See BL Touch Home & Auto Levelling Height Gauge [Custom Height] at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3632378. How to use it: - Watch how I used this BL Touch Gauge in the video at https://youtu.be/truJB5TqmoA?t=5m8s. - See BL Touch getting adjusted at the position indicated in the video at https://youtu.be/truJB5TqmoA?t=11m0s. BLTouch Home & AutoLevelling Classic (White colour) is available at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bltouch-auto-bed-leveling-sensor-for-3d-printers#/. BLTouch is an auto leveling sensor for 3D Printers based on open-source. It works with any bed materials, such as glass, wood, metal, and others. Features include: - Self-test: The push pin operates itself three times to test when the power is on. - Alarm: The LED light blinks if a problem found on a self-test or on an operation. BLTouch consists of Atmel ATtiny13A, solenoid, and a push pin. It uses high-precision Type sensor based on Hall Effect. Note that BLTouch needs to be set at 8.3mm (+/-0.2) above the nozzle. Newer Smart BL Touch has a 8.5mm distance, from shoulder to tip of probe. This simple 3D Printable gauge helps achieve this height. Remember that this BLTouch gauge block will need to be set onto a sheet of paper, with the distance of the nozzle tip above the print bed. I have not tested this BLTouch gauge block in real world situation because I do not own or have a BLTouch. Print Settings: - Printer: Protomaker Black Sprint Original 3D Printer - Rafts: No - Supports: No - Resolution: 0.2 or better - Infill: 20% - Notes: 4 Layers on the top - Untested in real world Post-Printing: - Light sanding to smooth surfaces - Keep checking on the height of the BLTouch gauge block, it should be 8.3mm (+/-0.2) I designed this using TinkerCAD.
