BlTouch Mount For Ender 3 (remix) - no supports needed

thingiverse

If you want to check out my new adjustable touch sensor mount, click this link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3148733. I highly recommend using the adjustable mount over the fixed mounts available here. Update 1/25/2020 - I've been informed that the "ender3-bltouch-mount-4b-3mm-lower" version works great on a 2019 Ender3 Pro with a BL-TOUCH 3.1 Smart (genuine Antclabs) if you're using it without springs. Offsets are X -41, Y -10, thanks to Scope6666 for this info! Update 11-28-2018 - A user mentioned that the model "ender3-no-support-bltouch-mount-4a-fixed.stl" is too high and suggested trying the second one here "ender3-bltouch-mount-4b-3mm-lower.stl". I'm updating this to WIP since I can no longer test these without a major printer tear-down. Unless there's an objection, I plan to remove the non-adjustable models in the next couple weeks and leave only the adjustable mount linked below, which is much better than the fixed mounts anyway. Update 10-10-2018: I've added an option for a mount that sets the probe 3mm lower than the original model. If you find the probe needs to be moved down, try this one: ender3-bltouch-mount-4b-3mm-lower.stl Update 9-10-2018: I was told there's a problem with this model (see comments). I believe it's now corrected with version 4a. This version has the fix from the prior update on 8/29/2018 and corrects a split in the model left by my CAD program when merging objects. The STEP file is also updated with the latest. Update 8-29-2018: I was informed that the original mount didn't fit the Smart 2. The issue was that the mount was too thick, resulting in not enough space for the smart 2 (it was too low). I modified it by raising the base of the mount where the touch probe will be mounted, by 3.004mm. Thanks to info from Elchschmied who created the re-mix to correct the problem (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3068970). This model should now fit as well. I've also loaded the STEP file so it can be modified easier if needed. Any issues with this, please leave a comment. --- Original description: --- This is a remix of BlTouch Mount For Ender 3 by dopesoner930 below (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2990086), which is a remix of the original from shocksofmighty below (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2493610). This uses the same dimensions, I just rounded some of the corners so it wouldn't need supports. Update 3-22-2019: These are the offsets for this mount - thanks dopesoner930 (for the original design) and danpeig for confirming the offsets: X_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -42 // X offset: -left +right [of the nozzle] Y_PROBE_OFFSET_FROM_EXTRUDER -5 // Y offset: -front +behind [the nozzle]
