Filament Sensor Mount Remix

thingiverse

I really liked demjansein's design of a swiveling runout sensor mount for his Ender 3 printer. I have a pair of CR10 V2's which are quite a bit taller and really need a bolt down mount to do this properly so I undertook a re-design/remix of his original, keeping the main concept, but instead of just having the mount hook over the top channel like demjansein did in the original, used Fusion 360 (.f3d files are included for ease of modification by the user if desired) I did a redisign/remix of the mount and swivel to make it much more stable on my larger printers. Posted here is the result with what I hope is enough information to recreate it. The same 608zz bearings are used that demjansein used and you will need one of those and the other listed hardware for each sensor mount you print. The original sensor will work fine, but I used some aftermarket ones I picked up that I think are more reliable and are made out of aluminum instead of plastic. They should hold up much better, especially in this application where abrasive filaments are sometimes used.
