Dial indicator holder for Fabtotum

thingiverse

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY MY DESIGN. This holder was designed specifically for holding a dial indicator in place during bed leveling. Initially, I planned to add a clamp, but due to its snug fit, it's not necessary. It was engineered to accommodate an 8mm shaft with a 4.1mm diameter, and after being press-fitted, it meets my needs. However, my printout had a bit of extra material in the carriage area, so I had to grind and cut it slightly. The design file has been modified accordingly, but I didn't attempt another print. Please let me know if this revised version fits as expected. I've included the FreeCAD file for users who want to customize or modify it. Keep in mind that I'm not an expert with FreeCAD, and I experienced some difficulties during corner smoothing. Feel free to adjust the design to suit your requirements. It's worth noting that the dial probe doesn't reach the front of the bed and overshoots the back slightly. To rectify this issue, it's recommended to install the dial facing towards the opposite side shown in the picture. This adjustment will shift the usable range approximately 1cm towards the front of the bed.
