This is a custom build /Meshmixer of two prints. Run FT-5_Z-Bed_Gap.gcode from an SD card after you have preheated your bed and nozzle to set your gap. I usually run FT-5_Z-Bed_Gap.gcode, place a piece of paper under the nozzle, and let it set for 15 minutes after the first iteration. After 15 minutes, pull the SD card out and reinsert it to stop the print. Then run it again to set the gap. I do this before every print to get the best results. My gap is normally set once I can easily slide a piece of paper between the nozzle and the bed with minimal drag. You will need two M3 screws that are long enough to reach the bottom for BLTouch installation. The holes should be tapped so you can secure the BLTouch in the fixture. As seen from the pictures, there is not enough room at the bottom for nuts. Using an M3 screw of sufficient length to hold it in place, tighten down the screw only a little bit after making contact with the BLTouch to avoid stripping the plastic. I printed the part with 100% infill and recommend you do as well. SN04 Z Adjuster HICTOP 3DP11 can be found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1534152. FT-5 Modified F11 and F12 are available at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2106409. I combined the SN04 Z Adjuster with the F12 of the FT-5 Modified to allow for the use of an induction sensor with adjustments. A suitable spring can be purchased from https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XPG813G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, and an induction sensor can be found at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0052R5VLE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
