Emergency Stop switch mount for AM8

thingiverse

This is a straightforward housing for an emergency stop button/power switch designed specifically for the AM8. It seamlessly mounts directly onto the extrusion at any desired location using two additional T-nuts and M5 bolts leftover from the build process. A relief is incorporated in the back to route wires underneath the frame while maintaining a flush surface with the table. I utilized slightly shorter square rubber feet on my project, resulting in my printer being positioned about 1 mm lower than it would have been if I used the original AM8 BOM feet. Measure carefully before printing and considering that this model prints upside down, you can slice it to stop printing at any height suitable for your specific printer. For the switch itself, I opted for an affordable uxcell red mushroom emergency stop button priced at $5.36 on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0094GM004/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). However, any 22mm stop switch should be compatible. I deliberately left ample space for wiring and switches of various dimensions to ensure a versatile design.
